It doesn't work, even with a master-level ship. We tried with the Starwind, my YKL-37R. No such luck. Nothing happened, nothing appeared. Disabled a Tier 5 ship that had a cargo of some kind, docked, and nothing.
it let you dock wiith it? did you check your loot box after word? wouldnt surprise me if it dosent work I'd also like to know for sure.

I tried this for fun. I disabled a tier 2 freighter, inspected it(a clothing shipment lol), and docked with it. Said I retreived the cargo,
but when I tried another one, it said that it was impossible to extract the cargo or something like that.
Note: I'm a master smuggler, fly a dunelizard at the moment, and did not read all the posts(just skimmed it looking for a red name)
so sorry if this post is non-constructive.

The only stuff that's ever appeared in the loot box (including after docking, because we were specifically checking this) was stuff we got for blowing up enemy ships. (Weapons, armor, engines, credit chip, etc)

Yep - if that freighter is carrying a weapons shipment, I want to loot a gun out of the deal. That's pretty open to abuse, though probably less so than just randomly blowing them up looking for loot.
Maybegive them the equivalent tothe pirate trap skill as a distress call to bring in like-factionedfighters?

Ok so far i beleave that it does nothing.... BUT it will probably do something in the future for special missions OR maybe the smuggler revamp, as the smuggler revamp said stuff about having to steal special compontnents and get special components from crates to make spices if you remember the little bit TH said ages ago.

Bumpity Bump
I was wondering about this too! thought I was the one that was bugged. hmm.. It would rock. But I am 2211 Corsec and I can only attack heavy freighters. It won't allow me to attack light ones, But when I inspect them they normally don't have anything on them anyway...
C'mon DEVS!!! or anyone! WE NEED AN ANSWER!
