-Ejecting in interstellar space is usually fatal - there is usually no one close enough to your location to render assistance, and the limited fuel on the escape pod is insufficient to enable a return to normal space.
+Ejecting in interstellar space is generally fatal - there is usually no one close enough to your location to render assistance, and the limited fuel on the escape pod is insufficient to enable a return to normal space.
 Occasionally, though, there are rescue options even in interstellar space. If one of these options is close by (like a naval station or carrier), there is a chance a rescue will take place. However, insurance operators cannot provide replacement ships in this situation. Instead, the player will be given a used ship and will have to make their way back to normal space in this. When they dock at a GalCop station they will at that time be presented with options for ship replacement.

 ==Overview==
-This OXP aims to make the experience of using an escape pod a bit more interesting and realistic. The first change is that the player will be auto-ejected from their ship just before it is destroyed, in all cases, even if they don't have an escape pod. If the player has not fitted an escape pod, they will eject from their ship in a life-support suit only, which provides a means of keeping the pilot in stasis until they can be recovered. If an escape pod is fitted, it will auto-eject the player when it is clear the ship can no longer support life. Players can also choose when they eject if they have an escape pod, rather than waiting for the auto-eject process to kick in. Also, any parcels or passengers currently on board, and any gold, platinum or gem-stones will not fit into the life-support suit, and so will be lost with the rest of the cargo and ship. If an escape pod is fitted, these items will be preserved.

 Once the player has been recovered, they then need to decide what to do about replacing their ship. They will be given (at most) three options:<br/>

 Note that, if you have passengers on board, choosing option (2) or (3) will result in those passengers being abandoned at the station and the contracts terminated.
-<sup>1</sup> Note: The one exception to this rule is the cloaking device, which, because of the nature of the device and how it came to be in your posession, constitutes a real problem for insurance repair coverage. However, if you are rescued at a station that has a suitably high tech level, the device will be repaired.
