Landed Ship Capture

[[BHA] Parazac]

ok, so i was wandering around on a planet when a Banshee landed near me at one of the usual ship landing POI's.

i thought hell yes! killed off all the crew and turrets but when i went to claim it i had forgotten i didnt have the skill yet to claim it.

went off to another star system, then flew back to the other star system, landed on the planet and fast travelled to the POI.

the Banshee is still there with no crew in sight, anyone know how long it will stay there for?

would be cool if i had enough time to raise my skill to then go back and claim it.

I'm not aware of any skill requiring to take a ship (at least from pirates). You simply sit in the pilot's seat and it becomes yours.

Did you take it from pirates, or murder non-hostile NPCs? I'm not spec'd into theft or "evil" style skills, so haven't stolen a ship from anyone that's not hostile.

Crimson Fleet Pirates.

Banshee is Class B and i dont have that skill yet, when i tried to sit in the chair it told me i didnt have the skill so cant claim it :(

so far though i have been killing ships and saving/reloading when needed, now and then i check back and the ship is still at the POI.

with luck i can get the last 11 kills i need to rank up and still be able to claim it.

edit,
there was about 6 of them in the ship i had to kill, plus 2 turrets.
the issue was as mentioned above, trying to sit in the chair it said i dont have the skill yet.

The ship will stay for approximately, 60-80 in game days, from my testing.

So you MAY be able to do it in that time frame, but none of this accounts for bugs, the game having a full on stroke, or if you go like, 3-5 systems away from the one where it was.

Oh, I didn't realize it was class B. That requires Tech > Piloting Rank 3 (top row).

Not sure how long the ship will stay there, but my guess would be as long as you don't make 4 more landing POIs on the planet; the game starts removing them after 4. But perhaps 24/48 hours UT maybe?

wonder if it resets the timer when i travel back, enter the ship and kill the captain again?

if so i may have to do that each time i kill another ship just to try and keep this thing spawned.

really want this ship, lol

woohoo!

15 ship kills later and the Banshee was still at the POI and is now MINE!

^Congratulations!

That's funny, every time I try to take over a ship that lands in my vicinity it takes off. With me in it. Thank God for jetpacks.
