It occurs to me that there's a problem with smuggling in space. Namely, imbalance. The devs would need to create specialized ships (customs ships, maybe?) capable of extraordinary speeds to keep up with even a POB. A good POB with a 119 engine + EO4 = fast getaway. Even Tier 5s would be left in the dust, so there would have to be special ships made to chase smugglers.

I think that's the whole point as a smuggler. We don't want to fight our way out of everything, just run like hell...
Besides, this has nothing to do with balance, as we'd be up against NPCs. I mean if you don't want to fight something now, can't you already just run?

Don't know why this wasn't put in with JTL from the first place... Its a huge loss to the Star Wars idea that players can't smuggler in space. Thats practically half of the whole idea behind space in the movies(besides huge space battles, which don't exist as well).
