deaggro low level mining bots
with precise positioning you can cause bots like oruns and denteks to maintain a cluster 300 to 500 meters from your ship within the aiming cone of fire of a caprail (using a capship) and sit almost perfectly still, without firing.. at which point you can target/fire to strike any of them without moving your reticule.. endlessly.. they will still cycle for the queen but return to position once they leave and return.
this could be easily automated to kill these types of bots, once manually positioned and triggered.
to be clear, they will not approach your ship and they will not fire as if completely stunned. its of no real benefit as their drops are of little value and generate almost no sss, but.. still interesting. may be reproducable on higher end bots, never bothered to try.
