Hello,

Here's the deal: currently, people can use neutral, non-aggroed ships like carriers / orcas / rorquals to scoop their aggro'ed/GCC ship, and dock back up or jump.

This is a way of evading the consequences of engaging, with absolutely no drawback, which seems pretty broken to me.

I propose this: if A stores his ship in B's ship maintenance array, all aggro timers from A should be immediately transfered to B. Every NPC / GCC aggro timer should be transferred to B's ship.

For 0.0, this rule would not work, anyway this scooping technique is mostly used to avoid empire timers from what i have seen. We should therefore add another rule: a ship can be scooped only when his aggression timer wears out.

It might have been proposed but a first search have gave nothing, sorry if the subject has already been discussed.
