Escape pods would allow for the captain to leave the ship in the drone and the rest of the crew in a fighter-like craft (weapoless).
The thing is, it would have to be built the same way you'd build a Hangar; with no block obstructing it. Larger "eject" surface area would allow for more crew to be ejected at once. Larger volume would allow for more escape pods.
Instead of one pilot, they hold a few crew members. Bigger pod = more crew members at once in it.
When you click Dismiss, the crew member is gone. If you have escape pods, he'd leave in one and would start flying at 150m/s towards the nearest station. No friendly station --> friendliest gate. No gate --> jump away in 15s.
Pirates would try to capture any stray escape pods to turn them into slaves (low priority for the pirate's AI).
