[[Random events#Pirates|There's a low chance of the pirate event occurring during a game.]] The station receives a demand from the pirates for 80% of the cargo points present when the event triggers. If the crew cough up the money, nothing happens. If the crew refuses, or stays silent however, 3 (unlike nuke ops, the number of pirates does not scale with population) ghosts are spawned as skeleton pirates and given the objective to gather credits looted from the station. | [[Random events#Pirates|There's a low chance of the pirate event occurring during a game.]] The station receives a demand from the pirates for 80% of the cargo points present when the event triggers.

If the crew refuses, or stays silent however, 3 (unlike nuke ops, the number of pirates does not scale with population) ghosts are spawned as skeleton pirates and given the objective to gather credits looted from the station. If under three ghosts take the pirate slots, later players can click on the sleepers on the ship to spawn as the remaining pirates. | |||

The goal of the pirates is to loot the station of anything valuable. The minimum target is 50000 credits, with the figure scaling with the relative prosperity of the crew. | The goal of the pirates is to loot the station of anything valuable.

One of the largest advantages the pirates have, is that they are skeletons. The skeletons species heals from milk, do not take damage in space, nor do they take suffocation damage. Skeletons are additionally immune to radiation, disease, and any imbed chance. Along with not having blood or needing food. However, skeletons have the downside of chemicals from patches, sprays, and injections being unable to process through their boney system. This means the pirates healing is much more limited. | |||

*The bridge is at the top. Similar to the White Ship, the pirate ship can be piloted across the station z-level, with a 3 minute cooldown between each jump. | *The bridge is at the top.

* | *Also, in the middle is the cargo bay teleporter. A pad which you put your booty on, and upon use teleports it to safety securing your riches. Only things put in the cargo bay count towards your credit target. | ||
* | *A plasma powered generator keeping the ship powered. | ||
* | *Some jetpacks to maneuver in space. | ||
* | *A kitchen with snacks and, more importantly, milk! Milk heals your skeleton body, and is invaluable for any good pirate. | ||
* | *The Data Siphon, to be a modern stealing the crews data. | ||
* | *The Booty Detector, to detect that lovely treasure. | ||
*Various other piratey items like cigars, booze, and outfits. | |||
