When Bounty Hunters interdict a ship they will likewise scan it to determine its criminal status, and they will open fire if the scan reveals a bounty. If either scan turns out positive then they will begin to open fire on the ship.
System Authority Vessels will interdict only to scan for criminal status ( Bounties) and contraband ( Illegal Goods/ Stolen Goods).
If an interdicting ship is successfully evaded by its intended victim, it will forcibly drop from supercruise and have to endure a FSD cooldown, which may give their target enough time to reach safety at a local station or jump to another system. Players that struggle with escaping interdictions may find it easier to submit, and then immediately target another star system and attempt to jump when the shorter cooldown finishes to elude their pursuer jumping to another system is recommended over returning to supercruiser as the interdicting ship's Mass Lock Factor may interfere with FSD supercruise charging. If the victim submits to the interdiction at any time during the process by throttling down to zero, they and the interdictor will avoid the heat damage and experience a much shorter FSD cooldown. Upon successfully interdicting, the victim of the interdiction drops out of supercruise mode into normal flight mode with a small amount of heat damage and their FSD locked into a lengthy cooldown the interdictor will also suffer heat damage. The blue meter will fill as a ship aligns with its target or the escape vector, while the red meter will fill as a ship fails to keep up with its target or escape vector. The progress of the interdiction is indicated on both ships' HUDs by two parallel, synchronized meters.
When an interdiction occurs, the interdictor and their victim engage in a brief tug-of-war: the interdictor must follow the victim and maintain the connection until the interdiction process completes, while the victim must either try to escape by closely following the designated escape vector to break the connection or submit to the interdiction by throttling down.
