Defense bots attacking same-team players
About 12 players tonight saw at 3 or more defense bots in sec3 trying to kill me. I'm gold.
Very weird - those three bots wouldn't even break off me to attack the real enemies in the sector, and they'd come BACK after me if they got killed and respawned.

Yeh.
I was flying around s12 (I'm Red. Duh) and suddenly I got sunflared by a bot.
The bot actually ram me on a rock...

(red) Same thing, only almost all the bots.
Same thing, red in S12.
It shot at me like mad

They also stick to the flag and the docking bays at times.
Bots love to swarm into the flag when it is droped, good tactic.
I saw a heavy bot issue itself off another bot that had pissed it off somehow.
Last night when blues were capping us I noticed a weird thing.
If I kill someone and also hit a bot with the same sunflares (splash damage), the bot starts to attack me.
It doesn't always work, but this was I was attacked my the turrets 4 times last night.

Hah. That's hilarious. I dunno why they'd go after someone on their own team, since they definitely shouldn't take any damage from you. Maybe they're triggering on 0 damage or something... And I thought they were specifically not allowed to attack other bots. Argh. I'll look into that.
I have noticed this too, it happens to me but only when i am in a close proximity of an enemy capper. The capper dies, then i get swarmed/attacked etc...
I have a kindda weird theory.
How do bots pick their target? The closest one?
If yes, this might be exaclly the problem.
Hostile ship attacks the bot, you're the closest one to the bot and you get attacked by it.

Here's a new hilarious bug. If you put mines near the flag, the Flag Defense Turrets try to demine. This is not good, but understandable. The problem is, FF is off. So they will fire at the mines until the mines time out, doing NO damage and being TOTALLY distracted. It's annoying, can you fix it?
this happened to me too. i was just sitting there i shot a bot and it satrting going crazy it fired all its rockets at me and then the other bot came and fired its rockets and issued then came back and issued and died then i had most of the bots on me and they kept issueing on me and then they stopped once one of the bots smashed me into a roid.
