A '''Kill Warrant Scanner''' is a utility module that is used to scan [[ships]] for any active bounties acquired in other jurisdictions. It is a staple tool for [[Bounty Hunter]]s. For targets that already have a bounty, being scanned by a Kill Warrant Scanner may increase that bounty, while targets with a Clean status may gain a bounty if they committed a crime but were previously undetected. Only ships that have no committed no crimes will remain unaffected. Using the scanner is considered hostile behavior, and the target is immediately alerted when the scan is initiated.
A '''Kill Warrant Scanner''' is mounted in a utility slot of your ship and needs to be assigned to a fire group, just like a weapon. It can be used to scan a targeted ship for bounties gained from other jurisdictions. This means for targets who already have a bounty, this bounty might increase; other targets who show as having a clean status may gain a bounty after being scanned. For others there will be no change if they have committed no crime(s).
 
In short; though using a Kill Warrant Scanner isn't mandatory for [[Bounty Hunting]], it ''is'' an excellent (though not foolproof) way to increase your [[Bounty Voucher]] gains.
 
Be warned - using this scanner is usually considered to be suspicious behaviour; expect human players to attempt to manoeuvre away from you! The target is always alerted when you initiate a scan on their ship, similar to when System Authority or Faction Navy ships scan for contraband.


==Usage==
==Usage==
You need to be within range (depending on scanner rating) of your target to activate the scanner. Holding the fire button down will initiate a scan and the button must be kept pressed until the scan completes, which will take 10 seconds for all ratings of scanner without engineering. You also have to stay in range of your target, or the scan will be interrupted. A lot of the time when a target knows they are being scanned they try to get away, especially if they're guilty. Always be prepared for a hot chase with the scanner activated!
The Kill Warrant Scanner must be assigned to a fire group and activated manually. It only works on targeted ships within its range. Holding down the fire button will initiate a scan, and the button must remain depressed until the scan completes, a process that takes approximately 10 seconds. The target must be kept within the Kill Warrant Scanner's range for the entire scan, otherwise the process will be interrupted, but scan data will only gradually degrade rather than instantly reset if button remains depressed until the scan is not resumed. A ship that is being scanned can deploy [[Chaff Launcher|chaff]] to temporarily prevent a scan from initiating or completing.


If the scan is interrupted, it will slowly tick down or 'degrade' rather than immediately reset so long as the trigger is still held; coming into range of the target again will allow progress to be (partially) resumed rather than starting over from scratch.
A targeted ship's criminal status and total bounty are visible in the Contact tab of the left panel of the [[HUD]]. Be aware that attacking any ship that is not Wanted in the current system is illegal in all inhabited systems except those controlled by Anarchy minor factions, regardless of the presence of other bounties. [[Bounty Hunter|Bounty hunting]] in Anarchy system requires the use of a Kill Warrant Scanner, as all targets will come up Clean in the current system.


Note that the Target panel only shows the Clean/Wanted status in the current system - their total bounty is visible only in the Contact tab. Furthermore, attacking a ship that is not Wanted in the current system is illegal in policed systems, regardless of the presence of other bounties. When hunting in anarchy systems a Kill Warrant Scanner is required, as all targets will come up as Clean in the local system and you won't get any bounty unless you scan them first.
Kill Warrant Scanners can also be operated by [[Telepresence]] and [[Multicrew]]; pilots in the Gunner role may use a Kill Warrant Scanner to scan targets at any angle relative to the mothership, not just directly forwards, although its scanning cone is very narrow without Engineering and it will still be difficult to scan small or fast-moving targets.
 
Note: If the target is currently discharging chaff from a [[Chaff Launcher]] a scan will not begin until the chaff effect wears off. If the target deploys chaff after a scan has started but before the scan has completed, the scan will not make any progress and will lose progress as if line of sight to the target has been broken. Chaff has no effect on a scan that has already been completed.

Kill Warrant Scanner

Template:Quote A Kill Warrant Scanner is a utility module that is used to scan ships for any active bounties acquired in other jurisdictions. It is a staple tool for Bounty Hunters. For targets that already have a bounty, being scanned by a Kill Warrant Scanner may increase that bounty, while targets with a Clean status may gain a bounty if they committed a crime but were previously undetected. Only ships that have no committed no crimes will remain unaffected. Using the scanner is considered hostile behavior, and the target is immediately alerted when the scan is initiated.

Usage

The Kill Warrant Scanner must be assigned to a fire group and activated manually. It only works on targeted ships within its range. Holding down the fire button will initiate a scan, and the button must remain depressed until the scan completes, a process that takes approximately 10 seconds. The target must be kept within the Kill Warrant Scanner's range for the entire scan, otherwise the process will be interrupted, but scan data will only gradually degrade rather than instantly reset if button remains depressed until the scan is not resumed. A ship that is being scanned can deploy chaff to temporarily prevent a scan from initiating or completing.

A targeted ship's criminal status and total bounty are visible in the Contact tab of the left panel of the HUD. Be aware that attacking any ship that is not Wanted in the current system is illegal in all inhabited systems except those controlled by Anarchy minor factions, regardless of the presence of other bounties. Bounty hunting in Anarchy system requires the use of a Kill Warrant Scanner, as all targets will come up Clean in the current system.

Kill Warrant Scanners can also be operated by Telepresence and Multicrew; pilots in the Gunner role may use a Kill Warrant Scanner to scan targets at any angle relative to the mothership, not just directly forwards, although its scanning cone is very narrow without Engineering and it will still be difficult to scan small or fast-moving targets.
