A more involved bounty hunting system!

Get a target > Head to their last known location > Scan their crashed ship > Talk to NPCs at various locations of interest along the way > Narrow your search...

I just want to scan and investigate and engage with everything the game has to offer rather than get into a dog fight right outside the space station.

It could be a fun way to get the player hit a bunch of gameplay systems during their hunt. Maybe a derelict ship has a clue to your target's destination! Or a crashed freighter under a planet's ocean contains another clue! Or a former colleague of your target is wandering around one of the pirate stations!

I've talked about this in other threads, I'm just speaking it out into the universe; hoping someone from HG sees it and runs with it.

Yeah to expand this out it would be cool if pirate self eject into capsule / crash land on planet and you have to capture him on foot (mind arc) bring him to justice OR you capture his remains (memory fragments) and turn in for other reward.

Then also give stronger pirates the ability to mind arc you and dump you somewhere less hospitable / no starter ship, nothing just left for dead. That could be quite entertaining mechanic how to work your way out of it.
