Could be a nice option to have tractor beam modules :)
Don't think it would unballance anything, limit the function only to floating cargos and non occupied ships, but would be a nice device to let a fast fregate regroup cargos in a roid belt before the indy come and grab the stuff.
Would add some strategies for small ships to try and grab those floating cargos in the middle of pirates fields.
A nice utility device so common in Sci-Fi world :)

I think combat tractors could be usefull as well. Still, it should take a cruiser to catch a frigate, and a BB to catch a cruiser. so they won't be nber, but very usefull for blockades and such.

i agree 100%...... it would be extremely helpfull for my indi friends who end up bouncing off all the astroids trying to get cargo containers. it would be much better if they could say... drag from a range of 20km (depending on skill level of cource) and then they wouldn't have to travel that whole distance.

Hmm would the best plan just be to tractor all the nice asteroids off a 100km so you're out of range of any NPC pirates. :P
I am discounting the possibility that you might consider tractoring the whole asteroid back to the nearest station to see if you can still fit in through the airlock.

Go easy on em Cez, I think its a pretty fair idea. Targetted tractor only. Short to moderate range (skill based perhaps). Don't see the issue. Don't think combat its a sensible option, it would probably just open up abuse issues.

maybe tractors that hold missiles and let you shoot them out of the sky at your leisure as long as you can hold them
