What is the maximum range ships can target POS structures from? Is it solely determined by the ship fit and skills, or is there some hard cap, a grid size limit, or something else? Similarly, what is the maximum range POS batteries can target ships from?

You can't target anything further than 249.9 km away from you, few ships can hit stuff at that range anyway.

Also i'm pretty shure POS has a 249km locking range , damage and range will depend on the size of the turret.

No you can't sit in super safety while killing someones pos. man up and embrace getting shot.

Hell if you're upset about ECM **** stars, We have this things called 680DPS Garde II Domis.

Don't ask about Italics, just tilt your head.

If you can hit the pos most if not all of the pos mods can hit you.

I used to have a clever sig but I lost it.

there is a range at which things will not be automatically engaged by the POS. this is different from one mod to the next, but is on the stat card of the mod.

POS gunners will ruin your day from anywhere on grid.
