Call them when you need them, not constant pay?
si there a way to make a version of tis script, that does not include an hourly charge.
maybe include a security liscense (one time charge for a station) to enable a Security Response Request .. when you are under attack, or if you about to be attacked... goto your Station Commands and hit Security Response Request, or Call 911, or whatever...
it asks you want kind of response team to call :
Small Fighter Squad for ___ spacebucks
Medium Fighter Squad for ____ spacebucks
Large Fighter Squad for _____ spacebucks
Destroyer with Fighter squad for _______ spacebucks
Carrier with Full Fighter Compliment for _________ spacebucks
that way you only call them when you need them, and in the size that you need them.
if it's a Kha'ak invasion with 2 destroyers and a fighter group... you call the Destroyer team twice.. it just charges you once for each press.. and they just start pouring in the gate... or maybe Jump in at a jump beacon... maybe that's it.. you buy a Satelite, and call them from the satelite, and they jump in on that location.
like you said too, make them race dependant too. or mybe give you the choice of Race, and Response Team Size.
Or just use the race of the sector it's in... (unclaimed sectors , hmm, use nearby sector, or just pick one.. maybe the player's race (argon if not sure even)...
right now, i just flew through a sector that has 2 destroyers and a fighter group, and i JUST started the game.. it would be nice to be able to call someone to help clean up the sector.. the Kha'ak are just wiping things out, and the race doesn't seem to care.
That would be a Mod to download...
i just have a few tiny ships, and just got my second freighter thanks to some local police... but I'm sitting on half a million, I'd cough up 400,000 of it to see a Teladi Carrier come in and cut loose with all it's fighters.
(actually i'd probably even spend the whole thing just once to see it happen).
but that way you wouldn't have to spend a ton of money all the time, just when you need it, and in the size/amount that you THINK you need... be good even when you HAVE the resources to deal with the incursion yourself.. but want the extra back-up.
Or like in my situation, I could call 911, and .. well. i'm starting to ramble.

Has anyone looked at updating this or have suggestions for something similar?
I'm looking for something to fill three niche roles:
-- Mercenaries available for hire to player as temporary backup without any micromanagement headaches, credits only, could be non-hireling NPC allies.
-- Private security forces for niche use with pseudo factions, as if the mercs can be seen taking contracts with NPC's (e.g. private stations, unique NPC counterparts to player, plot objects, none of which are suitable for RRF/MBRR).
-- X3-R BBS guild style recurring contracts for player.
Better way to describe it might be a mercenary variant of Pirates Guild.
