How do i order a ship to capture/claim a found ship?

[Marc1314]

I have a ship scouting and exploring sectors. It's found an abandoned Elite Vanguard but instead of claiming it it kept on exploring the sector and i cant see any command that will tell it to go back and claim it.
It has a couple of marines on board.
Is it possible to remotely claim a ship using one of my other ships or do i need to do it manually?

if it's busted, you'll need to manually repair it in your spacesuit.

It is not Possible to actively let a ship claim another abandoned ship. They can claim ships on there own if they just fly around and a pilot bails out of whatever reason in there direct vincinity. Like 10 km radius.

PS:i dont understand what Farts answer has to do with the Question?

You can do this with a marine onboard, but I never had any of my people set to auto-claim. Therefore I had to do it either manually (go EVA in a spacesuit and hack it), or if I have a marine, I can pull up close to it and right-click "claim ship" and he'll go out there and do it for me. But I can only do this in my own ship, not remote.

I had to do this once in The Void sector, where it's hazardous just to be there. A Drill mining ship was stuck in a bad place. I couldn't get close to it, or even go in-sector without the hazard destroying it. My solution was to send a ship in and park just outside the hazard belt, teleport in, quickly tell a marine to go to it, and teleport out before anything blew up. If I'm out of sector, the hazard doesn't play a role, so I got it and ordered it out remotely.
