Perhaps showing off is in order when one comes up with a new idea, but one cannot copyright modding strategies, and a modder would be a poor individual if he didn't want other modders to use those strategies to better their own mods. People might feel compelled to cite credit to other community member's work and ideas when they release their own mods out of a sense of courtesy, but that's merely a gesture. Go ahead and do what you want, nobody will get upset. And as Solace says, he isn't even the first person to do this anyway.

Alright, there you go. Not all that pretty, but it works for pulling stuff out of the sky, or wheverever else. EDIT: It also pulls parts of dropships out of the sky. Directly toward you. At high speeds.
