Get low rep due to destroying SCA ship hacking my station

[bigd]

Why do I get unauthorize killing with the SCA and lose a lot of rep with them after destroying their ship that is hacking my station? We was neutral when they kept sending ships to hack my stations. Soon as I destroy their ship along with their repair drone, I get a long notification stating -36 rep due to unauthorize kill. If they get caught, I should have the right to destroy their ship without any rep lost.

You need to reveal they are SCA first (they cloak themselves and call sector security on your butt)

If your talking about -36 rep with SCA that not bad at all since it probably just temporary.

Not alot of faction actually tolerate the SCA once reveal.

They're in my controlled sector. When I destroy one of their ships, I get a long list saying -36 rep. Im enemies with them right now due to me destroying their ships that is hacking my station. How do you reveal them?

oh that might just be the temporary reputation lost then.
(you will notice that you are only enemies with SCA at the fighting location and not enemies globally)

This works with all faction so if you friendly fire an Argon ship for example the Argon that took the hit and the Argon near them will have -30 and try to kill you but if you leave it reverts back to normal in a couple of minutes (no true severe rep lost).

SCA rep however is special it is locked at -5 reputation until a terraforming project that unlocks it.
To reveal SCA you can either
1. have police ships to scan for potential SCA ships

2. turn on Shift + 2 for scan mode and do Shift + F I believe when near them to do a detailed scan

Ok thanks and its not temp rep lost. We are officially enemies. Any ship that comes through gets destroyed and any of my ships that goes through their space gets attacked.

Definitely doesn't sound right if you haven't done the terraforming mission to unlock the reputation.

SCA should always be at -5. (is it negative 5 at your reputation screen?)

It is possible to unlock the Pact as a regular Faction with a dynamic Reputation during their Terraforming Mission in Scale Plate Green.

Didn't even do any Terraforming missions. Rep is -29. Stations and ships are hostile .

would you mind posting a screenshot of your faction list? (im pretty sure this doesnt reflect temporary rep changes) SCA is firmly locked at -5 no matter what you do to them if you havent done their terraforming so unless it's something changed in 4.10 i'd suspect a misunderstanding on your part since this would be the first time ever (in 3 years?) someone has reported SCA rep changing (prior to terraforming).

I stole 30 of their XL Ships.
They are still at -5 for me (Vanilla gameplay, no DLC´s, no Questlines done, well i guess that all i idid was side missions)

Whats a successful way to board a ship and take it over?

1 destroy all surface elements on the target and then get shield/hull down to 10% or so and hit board with enough marines.

10% is pretty extreme unless your trying to get crew to bail before you board.

I find if i send marines over then start shooting hull, they'll begin boarding at about 70% so i find that a good number. Technically you can do it with 100% hull but it takes about 30 minutes with SETA going the whole time.

Shields are irrelevant to boarding success, would recommend leaving them at 100% to prevent other people from killing your target.

@bigd must be something introduced with Humanity expansion then, maybe to do with Yagi questline or something. I havent played that expansion yet.

It's your mod that's doing it. I've never met the Ossian Raiders.
