Self destruct Nyx and not giving km to gang that shoot you for 10 min is sexy. Will be cool that all titans just self destructs.

I wouldn't remove self-destructs entirely, but perhaps if you are under active attack it takes 5x as long or something. Similar to if you loggoffski in combat, your ship stays in space longer.

Self destructing should cause AoE damage, like smartbombs. The bigger the ship, the larger the AoE radius and damage done from the self destruct.
They should also produce a killmail.

if you logofski in combat you die what prob whith that ?
ppl that don't like SD is cos = no km and eventualy faction loot ^^
I admit to SD if more that 1 bill on board.

No problems with dieing if you log off in combat. Thats why that timer is there, to make sure you have a chance to die. The same system could be extended to cover the self destruct timer. If you are under attack/have aggro your self destruct could be 15 min instead of 2.

What is sweet is the pirate tears that a self-destruct (and thus the denial of kill-mails and loot) can bring. The ship was lost anyway, but this one form of fighting back cannot be taken away.

Real pirates do it for the kill, not the loot. And if a pirate cries, he is not a pirate, he is Salvador Scopelli

It can be funny. Perhaps get a KM but still not drop loot? Wouldn't change any balance, just OOG killboards would care. Causing someone to self destruct is basically killing them.

Excellent suggestion, particularly as it should silence the FW objections.
Otherwise - hearing some pirate-wannabe coming to C&P crying about how self-destruct has spoiled his fun sounds a lot like pirate tears to me. Or wannabe-tears, not that there is much difference. Hmm.. I seem to be trolling so I will stop except for one last observation - they are not MY tears as I am not the OP now am I?

Not just the pirates, it also screws over mercs who have a hard time proving a kill happened without a killmail.
Someone else can argue the loot side of it, but WTB self-destruct KMs. |

Ahhh what value a KM has to some people that self-destructing invokes tears.
Why are they crying over some internet message they didn't get?
After all, when they get what they want, they say "itz only interwebs space ships you ain't l33t nun go back 2 WOW"
but deny them that KM and you'd think they were possessed by Jan Brady for a week.

If you can't destroy a target in 2 minutes, then you don't deserve a KM or the rewards of being a merc. You deny them a ship, they deny you a KM. Seems equal in all regards or bring more firepower next time.

Why do you want a killmail for something you didnt kill ?

It used to be standard practice in the navy and merchant navy to scuttle your ship to stop pirates getting the loots, what is the difference?
bad luck you didn't get it this time, always another day!

Generally when a merc corporation is employed it is to cause damage to an enemy corporation. Killmails act as indicators of performance to the contractor of the mercenary corporation.
Regardless of the amount of time it takes, the person self-destructed as a direct result of the merc corporation attacking them. Therefore, the merc corporation is responsible for the damages to said corp. In turn, the damages happened because the mercs were employed against the corp, and the killmail provides a way to confirm this to the employer.
Anyway, on the off-chance a dev reads this thread I've said my opinions on the matter. The rest of the trolls and trolled can duke it out for the next 5 pages. |

had some -10s try and hold my battleship hostage and said "eject your ship and we'll spare your pod". i was not about to throw 100 mil down the drain just like that (let alone give it to them) so that's where the self-destruct came in. idk if other ppl can see u initate the self-destruct but the 2 minute countdown passed and i got my money back and my pod stayed intact.
if it wasn't for SD, pirates can hold your ship hostage indefinitely if they wanted to. then it'll boil down to being glued to the screen for a whole day (and not eat, go to the bathroom, etc.) just to figure out if he's gonna blow up your ship and pod u when u're not looking...or give into his ransom 'cause u don't have that kind of time.
