Getting frustrated by taking over NPC grids, one block at a time? Look no further!
Cooperative NPC Takeover allows you to capture grids with ease - once you fought past the defenses and are on board, in any case!
The challenge of capturing an enemy ship should be getting actually into it, and overcoming its defenses, not a frustrating time with your grinder in hand.
This mod is based on the older Easy NPC Takeovers from Meridius_IX.
How to capture a NPC?
Simply hack all control stations. Thats it. Grind them down, weld them back up, and the grid is yours.
Control stations include: - The remote control - Flight Seats / Control Seats / Cockpits - Cryo Chambers - Offensive/Defensive AI blocks
Once the last of these blocks is hacked, you will automatically take ownership of the grid.
In particular, this works in Co-Op, as long as everyone is on the same faction. All hacked control stations need to be owned by the same faction.
Where is the remote control?
Sometimes it can be quite difficult to find the remote control or AI blocks in a NPC ship. If you ever took half the ship apart to find it, you'll know.
To take the frustration out of grinding front to back through the ship to find it, the Remote Control now has an audible audio cue ("beep"), which you will start hearing at a distance of about 10 meters from the remote.
