===Boarding Ships After Combat===
You can dock and board a hostile ship, but you must first take out their [[shields]], then disable it's engines and avoid destroying the ship. Note that you are not able to board an [[enemy ship]] if there are other enemy ships actively attacking your ship.
 
One of the best ways to disable a ships [[engines]] is by acquiring the [[Targeting Control Systems]] [[skill]], which will allow you to target specific sections of a ship.
 
To avoid destroying the ship, if you have [[auto-turrets]] installed, make sure they are disabled by completely powering down your [[Lasers]] [[ship system]].
 
Once the engines are disabled and shields are disabled, you need to "[[Dock]]" with the ship. To do this, select the ship you want to dock with using A button on controller (E on Keyboard). If you see an option that says "Dock," press and hold X on controller (R on keyboard) to dock with the ship.

Once you are docked with the other ship, you will enter see the options Board, Undock, or Get up. Use the option of "Board."

If you want to take over the ship you just boarded, kill the crew found on that ship.

Once the crew is dealt with, enter the ship's [[pilot]] seat to take it over. If your [[Piloting]] [[Skill]] level is not high enough, you may not be able to take over the ship.
 
If you want to make it your home ship, you can simply start using the ship and jump to a new system.
 
Please note the following:
 
*Grav jumping, landing on a planet, or fast traveling will automatically make it your home ship.
*A captured ship cannot be sold or modified until it has been registered, which you can do from the Ship Section of the Data Menu (for a fee). The cost varies depending on the type of ship.
