How about a 'Warp Signature Analyser'?
If you have a target locked and it warps, the device would allow you to analyse the "warp signature" that they punched through space and be informed of where they have warped to... either as a bookmark or the name of a gate/planet/station, etc
A tech II version might allow you to follow them into warp. (possibly overtaking them if you warp quicker).
This would make escaping from combat much more difficult.
Or a tech II version might let you analyse the signature of all ships that have warped from your current location (without having targetted any of them in the first place) .. this would be great for tracking prey (useful for bounty hunters!)
A complimentary module would be a 'Warp Signature Dissipator' or 'Stealth Warpdrive' which would mean that your leave no warp signature which can be analysed.
Also how about a 'Warp Overdrive' module which significantly increases warp speed?

How about a "Tracking Device".
Might be fired by a "Expanded Probe Launcher" or a new "Tracking Device Launcher", it would attach itself to the target shp and then allow you to track the target. If the target is in the same system as you, the probe might give you a bookmark of the target's current location. If the target is in a different system, it might show the target on the star map. A whole range of different tracking probes could be offered giving a variety of lifespans and tracking range.
e.g.
current system tracking device- can only track ships within the current solar system
short range tracking device- can only track ships within 3 jumps of your current system
medium range tracking device- can only track ships within 7 jumps of your current system.
long ranget tracking device- can track targets up to 10 jumps from your current system.
Different probes could have different lifespans before they stop working (internal battery runs out!) e.g
15 minutes
1 hour
4 hours
1 day
Further variants of the tracking devices may or may not work if the target docks.
So rather than destroy your target outright, you could follow them, see where they like to go, etc in the hope of finding lucrative trade routes (if tracking a trader) or setting an ambush at some time in the future. |

How about a 'Market Research Drone"?
You would program the droneto warp to a designated system and lookup the price of a designated product.
You would launch the drone and have to wait for it to warp to it's destination (the further away the destination, the longer the wait). You would then get an evemail from the probe once it had reached it's destination and looked uop the price. The probe would then be lost once it had completed it's mission |

How about a script for a tracking computer that can increase the optimum range and/or falloff of your turrents? |
