Towbar

Make money from derelict ships.

Towbar

Pilots often eject when lost a fight and leave behind an almost destroyed ship. You do not need to destroy ships anymore for the bounty which you will get instantly when the pilot ejects.

Your HUD can show the Derelict status of your target if either Detectors OXP or NumericHUD v3.11 OXP are installed or you insert the insertintohudlegends.plist file from the Towbar OXP into your hud.plist.

If you approach a derelict ship within 100m (or hurtle into it) with a low speed difference (below 10) then the towbar will lock it. You will see it in your aft view (F2).

You can tow ships with a maximum of 1.6 times more mass than your ship. Untowable ships can be mined with Ship Miner only (see below).

You cannot use Injectors without special equipment and your pitch rate will be very low while towing (the $TowbarSlowTurn variable in towbar.js can be set to false on computers where controls go jerky while towing a ship).

Tow the ship into a dock in the current solar system to sell the hull as a large amount of alloys.

Ship		Mass	Alloys	Approximated credits
Adder   	11	3	100
Moray    	40	12	400
Cobra Mk I	47	14	500
Fer-de-Lance	51	15	500
Asp     	59	18	600
Cobra Mk III	186	56	1800
Boa     	192	58	1900
Python  	222	67	2200
Anaconda	430	80	2600

The payment is calculated from the alloy price at the station where you sell it, plus 0-2t Computers depending on the ship size. Largest ships can give maximum 80t alloys only due to the inner space.

Alloys will not be added to the market because the ship is sold to a dealer who pays instantly but disassembles the wreck later (thus avoiding filling up the 127t limit of the station's market), but the cargo will be added to the market. If the market is filled with this cargo then the remains will be sold at half price (or discarded if you set $TowbarLimit127t to true in towbar.js).

You will get several hundred credits for each saved piece of equipment and for the weapons too.

Military Laser worth 1-2 thousands but probably the fight was harder to get it.

All saved cargo is sold for the current price at the station.

Some ships (with high version numbers in ShipVersion OXP so the durable ones) hold much more valuable cargo than others.

With HardShips OXP you can get more equipment - as you can see in this image:

Compliments

You can get the following compliments:

• 1000 credits: Nice work.
• 3000 credits: Well done!
• 5000 credits: Excellent!

Usage

Be careful when attacking a ship you hope to tow: slow your fire when the exhaust plume changes (or throwing sparks with CustomShields OXP) to avoid blowing it up - and stop immediately when you see the Escape capsule. Then touch the derelict ship slowly to lock it to the towbar.

Reduce the pitch and yaw movements when towing due to there being a small but increasing chance to break either the towbar or the towed ship: heavier ships break sooner. A few tips:

• Approach the derelict ship in the direction of your next movement, usually head to the Station to reduce turning with mass.
• Stop your ship before turning to cause less pressure to the towbar.
• Do not go on a sightseeing tour: the status of the ship degrades over time when moving, so you will earn more credits if you deliver it faster. You will be informed about flying parts to remember this. Loss will be less at low speeds and your haul will be safe from this only if your ship is stopped!

Problems:

• If the towbar is destroyed then you can buy another and go back to the ship, just find the "D" (derelict) beaconCode on your Advanced Space Compass. Telescope OXP shows it also on your main scanner from any range.
• If you are too slow then either pirates will blow up the ship for the cargo, or hunters for the bounty or else some Thargoids will visit for sure!
• Other derelict ships in the system will not display a beaconCode on your ASC (due to the signal transmitter only being placed when the towbar is locked on).

Releasing the towed ship:

• You can release your towed ship if your ship touches another derelict ship.
• If you initiate a hyperjump then the towbar will release the towed ship. This means that you must sell the ship in the same system where you get it.
• You can also release the towed ship by priming your Towbar (Shift+N) and pressing activate (n). The just released ship can then be relocked by another activate (within 200m).

Combat while towing:

• The towed ship is vulnerable, so you are recommended to avoid combat situations until it has been delivered.
• The largest towed ships face into your aft weapon - so you cannot fire the or you will destroy the towed ship! If you really must fire your rear laser, then release the ship by a double "h" keypress (start and stop a hyperjump) and pick it up again later. Before doing this you must have set a target system and have enough fuel for the jump.
• Do not engage in a fight while towing a ship (to avoid too much jerky movement which breaks the towbar). If you must, then, as above, release your towed ship and reclaim it after the battle.

Build up your reputation by salvaging more ships, (towing missions will require qualifications)!

Techlevel: 1

Laser Reductor

This reduces your Laser power to minimal if your targeted enemy ship is derelict (to prevent you destroying it after the pilot has ejected). You will get a "Derelict!" message with a "bloop" sound when your target is ejected to warn you to stop firing your laser.

Your first 10 hits will be reduced only, (ie an entire second with a continuously firing beam laser). Most pilots are able to release the fire button within a second after warning sound started: if you fluff this then increase the $TowbarMaxReduct variable in towbar.js.

When you exceed this limit a "Laser Reductor disabled" message appears and you can now destroy your target to complete your mission. You can turn off the reductor by priming (Shift-N) and activating (n) Towbar when there is neither a towed ship nor a derelict one within 200m.

It is recommended to install the "Derelict" display warning into your HUD (with either Detectors OXP, NumericHUDv3.11 or by following the instructions in the insertintohudlegends.plist file) to get another visual warning.

Cost: 100.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 5

Ship Miner

Complex robots can transfer the valuable parts of the towed ship to your cargo hold - but this takes some time.

Mining operates in the following order:

1. Cargo: stronger ships tend to hold more valuable packages. Fuel is also transferred in this step.

2. Computers: from the built-in electronics, usually 1 or 2t depending on the ship size.

3. Machinery: from mining equipment and lasers, in equal value.

4. Alloys: from dismantling the hull into pieces - but only the smaller pieces can fit into the scoop (max. 10t).

Mining will stop by default when the cargo transfer is done - assuming you want to tow the ship into a station.

To continue mining the ship, prime Towbar (Shift+N) and press mode (b): but this is suggested only if you do not plan to tow the ship back to any dock.

• Set back to the "Offline" or "Cargo only" settings if you plan to tow a ship again.
• The "Cargo only" mode is suggested due to possible loss of cargo from the towed ship while moving (which cannot happen from your cargo hold).
• The "Up to full" mode will mine until there is no free space left in your ship, the rest is left in the half-mined ship.
• The "Salvager" mode will drop out all mined inner parts into space to complete the mining operation and increase your salvager reputation regardless of whether your hold is full.

Cargo check needs some time (even for ships with 0t cargo) due to checking the cabin safe which can contain valuables. Mining will be paused while steering, speed changing, injecting and torus travel - so it is best to mine when stopped or while travelling straight at a constant normal speed.

Parcels

Sometimes you can find parcels when finishing cargo transfer. Urgent ones need to be delivered to the main station within a few minutes. Your ship's manifest screen (F5F5) will show the remaining time for delivery. Do not use autodock (Shift+C) due to it needing 20 minutes (regardless of the fact that it looks like an instant process!) - you will arrive too late.

Your parcel reputation will not suffer if you do not arrive in time due to you are not the one who undertook the delivery (expired parcels will be removed from your manifest screen to avoid such penalties). Install Display reputation OXP to track your progress: you will get more payout for the same work if you earn a higher reputation.

To find the shortest route for normal parcel delivery you should buy Advanced Navigational Array equipment, then select the galactic chart (F6F6), hold down "^" (Shift+6) and click on the destination (marked with a green diamond). Hold down the Ctrl key as well also to show the fastest route if that route takes too long. Press F1 and then "`" to review your time limit in your communications log in hours. The Manifest screen (F5F5) shows this in days but in the galactic chart (F6F6) you see the times of routes in hours.

Traps

Some ships are equipped with a self-destruct trap. A mistake during Fuel transfer can also end up with an explosion. These can cause major damage to your ship depending on the size of the towed ship. As you gain more and more salvaging experience you can prevent these problems more of the time. With ShipVersion OXP you usually can mine ships safely below or at your salvager level.

Towbar will not autolock if a trap can kill you due to the target being too large or your energy too low. You can override this safety feature by priming and activating Towbar but you risk dying in an explosion. There is always a small chance to fall into a trap, sometimes even an Elite Salvager can make mistakes also! It might be more prudent to avoid overriding this safety feature and wait until your energy and shields are recharged, buying Shield Boosters or even buying a larger ship with more energy banks.

Ship mining is not 100% safe, towed ships can explode from the meddling in rare cases which will surely also destroy the miner.

Finishing mining counts as 'salvaging the ship' which increases your reputation - so you can save the towing time by doing so if the money is less important to you.

The "Empty" word in the ship name means that the cargo has been transferred already, the "Mined" word means that mining is completed. Your HUD can show these words also with NumericHUD v3.11 or by following the instructions in the insertintohudlegends.plist. Derelict ships show as a light blue lollipop in the scanner when targeted, Empty ships show as blue and Mined ships show as dark blue.

If you want to sell the parts in another solar system then you must mine the ship before jumping (due to the impossibility of constructing a tool which can avoid the explosion of a badly damaged ship in hyperspace).

You should also complete mining if you are very far away from any dock to avoid losing many of the parts along the way. If the Station is nearby you will earn more credits by towing it as it is.

If you are mining a heavy ship which has more than 1.6 times the mass of your ship, then you are stuck and cannot move regardless of your speed settings. If you touch the controls while mining a heavy ship then you must release it immediately to avoid breaking the towbar.

Ship Miner can fit into large ships over 130t only and the mined parts need much cargo space, unless you found valuable cargo (Gold, Platinum or Gem-stones).

Cost: 20000.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 5

Ship Miner Assistant

Additional transporter bots can help to reduce the mining time and increase your safety. The possibilities of losing or destroying ship parts are roughly halved. These can also catch large parts when towing before they drop out of the towed ship.

Cost: 20000.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 11

Towbar Compatible Injectors

Allow the use of Injectors while towing a ship. Costly due to the need of stronger towbar holders and of new exhaust fittings so that the towed ship is not damaged by exhaust emissions.

The towed ship loses more parts if the speed is higher - so you do not save money but you can save time. Torus Drive is the only exception to the speed rule - so Torus is recommended for use as soon as possible. Do not alter your direction while using these injectors otherwise your towbar will become much more unstable.

Cost: 20000.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 11

Towbar Repair Bot

Can fix a broken towbar, but once only. Repair starts automatically when needed and takes about a minute.

The bot cannot repair a destroyed towbar - which happens almost as often as a broken one - so it is better to apply a Towbar Stabilizer, and use the repair bot as a last resort only.

Cost: 1000.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 5

Towbar Stabilizer

Use this when your towbar is unstable - it will prevent damage and the possible explosion of your towed ship. It occupies an empty pylon, and is launched as a mine. Buy more than one if you plan to tow heavy ships for long distances.

It cannot fix a broken or destroyed towbar, nor resurrect a towed ship after an explosion caused by unstable towing: so use it before these problems occur.

Cost: 200.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 5

Tug Drone

Launch as a 'fire and forget missile' at a derelict ship and you are done with the work! Managed by the local authorities who charge a 50% commission but also pay up instantly when your tug drone hits the target.

The drone will eject the cargo and pay you for the ship only: so you must scoop the ejected cargo if you have not already extracted it with Ship Miner before launching your Tug Drone. GalCop defends tug drones but the cargo ejection is due to the need for all pirates to know that tug drones never transport cargo (thus attaining a tolerable safety level where it is not worth the pirate's efforts to attack it).

Deep Space Dredger OXP provides a Salvage Missile which can autopilot a derelict ship with cargo. In this case you must escort the derelict until it reaches a Dredger. This can be much harder due to pirate ambushes, but can also pay more due to avoidance of the local authorities' commission.

A Tug Drone can only fit into large ships (over 130t). Do not target small ships which pay less than the cost of the Tug Drone! You must aim exactly at the target (ie with a red STE box) to launch the drone, the regular green target lock is not exact enough.

The rotating ship model cannot be displayed in the sell salvage screen during flight, and your ship is moving while you read it so press enter shortly to reduce the blind fly time.

Cost: 1000.0 Cr.
Techlevel: 5

Salvager License

GalCop regulates ship salvaging at main stations; you must buy a license from your initial earnings, which is automatically deducted. You will only receive payments for the cargo after you have pooled the full 20000 credits for the yearly license. You must buy a new license every year. Once you have a Salvager License, you must pay tax on the ship hull and equipment valuations based on the government type.

Government		Tax
Anarchy 		0 %
Feudal			5 %
Multi-Governmental	10 %
Dictatorship		15 %
Communist		20 %
Confederacy		25 %
Democracy		30 %
Corporate State 	35 %

Non-GalCop stations do not require a license, but do charge a 50% commission. Dredgers in Deep Space Dredger OXP and Salvage Gangs in Anarchies OXP buy without commission due to processing the ship locally but they pay a low price for the alloys of the hull.

Cargo is never taxed or commissioned.

Salvager Missions

Your reputation is determined by how many ships you have salvaged either by delivery or by fully mining them. When you reach certain levels of reputation you might embark on Salvager Missions (in v0.93 only the first of these is implemented):

Ships	Rank		Level	Payout	Need Salvager License
0	First Aid	Easy	1000	No
2	Second Hand	Easy	2000	No
10	Ten Commands	Easy	10000	Yes
20	Twenty Sisters	Medium	20000	No
30	Thirty Pirates	Medium	30000	Yes
40	Forty Robbers	Medium	40000	Yes
50	Fifty Percent	Hard	50000	No
100	Hundred Tonnes	Hard	100000	Yes
200	200 Seconds	Hard	200000	No

Salvager Rankings

You can step up in your Salvager career by towing or mining derelict ships or achieving salvage missions.

As your reputation increases you can attain better rankings which are shown in your Manifest screen (F5-F5).

With higher ranks you can neutralize more complex traps in towed ships.

Ships	Rankings
2	Novice Salvager
4	Assistant Salvager
8	Poor Salvager
16	Below Average Salvager
32	Average Salvager
64	Above Average Salvager
128	Competent Salvager
1000	Trustworthy Salvager!
3000	Infallible Salvager!
6000	Elite Salvager!

Equipment Payout

In v0.104, Towbar started supporting "pluggable" policies to calculate the value of the equipments, weapons included, in the salvaged ship, to be implemented by other OXPs.

The reason for that can be seen in this discussion.

In v0.104, those policies overwrite the standard policy - to change policies the player has to uninstall one policy OXP and install the other policy OXP, which requires exiting the game session. Payout OXPs compatible with the v0.104 version must have a single policy packaged inside.

After v0.105, Towbar supports in-game selection of the payout policy through the Station Interfaces (F4) Config for AddOns screen. Payout OXPs compatible with v0.105 could package more than one payout policy for the player to choose, but if an OXP packages more than one policy it is not compatible with Towbar v0.104.

The OXPs that package such alternative payout policies can be found here.

Technical Information

Requires Oolite v1.77 and BGS OXP if you want to see nice background on the salvage screen.

Configuration

Towbar allows in-game configuration through Station Interfaces (F4) Config for AddOns for:

• TalkingShip: when true, Towbar will use Comms to send its messages to the player; otherwise the messages go to the Console.
• StartMode: start mode for Ship Miner: 0=Offline, 1=Cargo Only, 2=Full, 3=Salvager[.
• Appearance: the Towbar equipment appearance: 0=Retractable, 1=Fixed, 2=Tractor Beam.
• EqPayout: the salvaged equipment Payout Policy to use

Other configurations can only be altered by editingtowbar.js and re-starting the game:

• $TowbarDebug = false; //will spawn a derelict ship right after undock
• $TowbarLimit127t = false; //can limit markets to their original capacity (127t)
• $TowbarMaxReduct = 10; //how many hits will be reduced by the Laser Reductor on a derelict ship
• $TowbarNPCMissile = true; //NPCs with enhanced IQ: fire a missile before ejecting as a last resort
• $TowbarSlowTurn = true; //set to false if causing jerky controls while towing a ship

Payout OXPs

Payout OXPs add alternatives to the standard salvaged equipment payout policy. Such alternatives can be pro-player, paying more for the equipment, or anti-player, paying less.

A Payout Policy OXP MUST:

• create a function that takes an EquipmentInfo (which might contain a weapon) object as parameter and returns its salvage price IN CREDITS;
  • if the scriptInfo property towbar_max_salvage_price is defined for an equipment, the value there MUST be the high limit for the payout returned by the function for that equipment;
• in the OXP's startUpComplete event handler:
  • append a reference to that function to the array worldScripts.towbar.$TowbarEquipmentPayoutHandlers;
    
  • define a property display for that function and assign a short and distinctive string to it - the first 6 characters will be used to identify the policy implemented by the function in the policy selection screen;
    
  • repeat for as many policies as wished (but bear in mind that all the policies short names will have to fit in a single line).
