Apologize for attack

Last updated or tested for game versions: 9. 0

Supports the optional Extended Conversation Menu. Not required. (Feel free to add support for your own mods)

v0. 2. 1 fixed the option not being available for stations

This mod allows the player to apologize for unintended attacks which offers the possibility to defuse unintended combat actions without destroying friendly relations for no reason at all.

How it works:

- player must have neutral or better relations towards a faction to be able to stop an ongoing fight

- player can contact a now hostile ship over the comm menu (c) and select "Apologize for attack" (ship must have a pilot)

- to comm a station, be in comm range, then open the station information and rightclick the manager name (may just be "???"), to select "comm"

- all hostile ships and stations of the selected ship's faction in the sector are dropping hostile actions towards the player's ships unless reengaged

- permanent faction loss will still happen, but the player is able to stop escalations before the real relation damage is done (when shit starts blowing up)

If u encounter any issues or have ideas for improvement, please let me know. :)

- the vanilla ability to comm a hostile station manager may no longer be possible since a somewhat recent update. As a workaround simply apologize to a ship of the same faction in vicinity of the station (yes you can shoot one to get it to dislike you)

Installation:
