For the new pirate encounter...

If there is only one portal, why put a portal out anywhere near where you zone in?

If you miss click you lose the ship and the crew.

Such an awful feeling.

I wonder, now that it has happened to me, if I just leave it be what will happen.

Will I never get another commandeering, since I already have one?
Will I get one and killing that one count for both?

Given 5 of my last 5 were commandeered, I suspect I'll find out soon enough.

edit: you can't send new ones out while one is commandeered.
