NPC Trader Collision Avoidance Bug
Just now, my Behemoth crashed into the Itani trader NPC Esanis Tolana while leaving the exit bay at Divinia G-6 (Divine Duty). The NPC trader kept trying to move toward the exit bay, but couldn't. It reported that it was taking food from Divine Duty to SkyCommand, so apparently it had just undocked.
When I tried to nudge it away, station security reported that the ship was protected by Itani security, and that I needed to "cease fire" immediately. Risking destruction, I managed, very gently, to nudge it out of the way of the exit bay and back on its way with my ship, but had matters not been so lucky, either my ship could have been destroyed by security, or it might have stayed there indefinitely.
Apparently, something is wrong with the NPC trader collision avoidance subroutine. It probably needs to be fixed.
