A few containters with 4k per hack or even 1 would be a great improvement.

I don't know if it's possible but I think the containers are limited in size becaues cargolifters only have 4,000 storage capacity.

Could Hacker drones also be modded to cause a ship to eject all cargo into just a few containers?

Nice idea, but I can't think of a way to do it. =/

Had any plans to improve the hacker drone rewards? Not that they're lacking, I guess, but I was thinking there should be some way to sabotage a cap ship's communications so that they don't call the authorities. There should be more sneakysneaky to X Rebirth piracy, don't you agree?

That's a good idea but I think Egosoft is going to do that in the future because the code is partially there already in the boarding script.

With 3.0 you could add a reduction in boarding resistance as a reward for cap ship scan.

It's 30 minutes, and 15% may be a little high but when 3.0 patch comes out you'll be able to do smalltalk for 15-20% discounts that last 300 minutes (5 hours).

Yes great idea, although 15% seems pretty steep. Normal discounts for smalltaliking seem to be in the area of 1-5%. Does the subscription also last 30 minutes or is it permanent?

Looks like a good idea to give more meaning for the drone scanning!
