FasterBoarding

Description
After boarding hundreds of ships boarding becomes boreding. Speed it up.

In the simplest case (as far as I understand the boarding code) the boarding process goes from five steps of battle to just one. If your boarding strength is good enough (and it always is the way I do it) once the capsules reach the boarded ship, you should have it in a few seconds.

This is pretty much cheating, but after building a whole fleet through boarding I got tired of waiting.

Actually, in truth, I wrote this because I was boarding an Olmekron and just after starting boarding a friendly Olmekron jumped in and blew it up just before my boarding could finish. Since there's no way to tell a friendly ship "hey, that's my ship soon, go away" this was the second best solution.

And yes for those who wonder it is compatible with 4.3.

You sir, are a fine chap. lol
So before boarding I always check the area for allies so my target ship doesn't get blasted making my marines spacebug squat on some passing capital ship... I've got 50 Elite Marines and a 5/5/5 commander so I'm pretty careful with them as they took awhile to aquire. I was boarding a simple Maurader Rahanas and after I launched my maries the area was clear and I had used the repair laser mod to bring the shields up to 100% so I quicksaved and left to relieve myself. Came back and it's dead. Reloaded to find that an allied destroyer was jumping in at a perfect broadside and unloading more laser fire than the Imperial Clone Army and my repair laser couldn't keep up. So rather than go back an hour to my last save I found this mod and it saved the day. My hat's off to you sir! lol

LOL...before this mod i would have problems boarding a Styrvok bulk and liquid...after installing this mod...i tried it on a Fulmekron(don't know if i named it right)...it was a long battle to reduce it's hull(after taking all shields and woapons down)...but boarding was so fast that i didn't belive it at first that it is in my command...LOL...great mod...works like the description says..Thanks

This mod works perfectly!

After boarding so many ships, this doesn't feel like a cheat at all...

Could this be made so that it adapts to the strength of your boarding team? (i.e. a rookie crew with a low star commander will take the full five, or maybe even more turns, but as they gain experience boarding takes less time.

gravidar flag on ships don't seem to be added/kept when taking them over with this active

For that case I have always a repairdrone Mk4 with me, so I can save the ship that I'm boarding, the other possibility is the new "Repairservice" from Marvin the Martian what can assign a freighter to bring any ship back to live.
