Discussion Is the ship AI the way it's supposed to be

'' Game Note - Bad Spawn Ships

Bad spawn ships or "pop-up" ships spawn very near your ship. Since vessels often re-spawn at or near the same places, they may pop up in your path or dangerously close.

Beware! If the NPC engages your ship within the first 10 seconds of its life, its AI will switch to "highly aggressive" mode, turning quickly, and firing at a comparatively faster rate. These ships can be quite troublesome.


If a ship appears near you, (but not so close that it fires at you immediately), you should hold 10 seconds before firing - or face it's ill-temper.''

with this said, are the ships always in "highly aggressive" mode or are they with the spawn time freezed untill we get into combat range ?

To me they seem like bounty hunters, so comment down what you think!
