Break the unrats into squads that target ship classes

Break the unrats into squads that target ship classes. Three squads per sector, One squad targets normal ships, one targets capital ships, and one is weapons free on any class.

Right now the unrats will chase the first target them jumps into a wormhole sector. Like a big mass horde of starving zombies. Yelling braaaaaaaaiiiinnnnns. The second, third, etc pilot that jumps in then has no issues. Which is nice, but it would be more terrifying , if there were squads of unrats that would recognize a capital ship, and attack that specifically. As well as some of the unrats breaking off from chasing a fighter and instead going after a moth.

Respectfully, Ghost997, no they don't. I haven't heard of anyone losing a cap ship to unrats in weeks. As long as a cap ship pilot has cap rails, the unrats die fast.

Maybe add some Grey hounds to the mix as too many ppl are able to turbo away form the unrats to easily. Maybe give them PCBs as well.

The Dent is pretty easy to kill, maybe change it to a Connie, surely pirates would use the biggest ship they can.
