maybe the flower monster can pull multiple ships out of supercruise and the anacona npc thought it was you and attacked out of sheer panic?
stick that in your immersion pipe and smoke it!

Woohoo, first encounter with intelligent alien lifeforms! Congratulations to the commanders involved in this discovery!
But here is a suggestion: while everybody is now trying to get themselves abducted by aliens, could we also put some more effort into supporting the Balones CG which is trying to develop new deep-space probes? Those probes might be useful in gaining more knowledge about the aliens...

Repeatedly with no meaningful results, a side effect of your TL;DR.
Yep, Unknown Wake .. no destination
TBH it appears they've just turned on a flag... ie: Anyone going to the areas now can see them... Yesterday nothing... Today there they are...
Did you just hyperspace around the Pleiades and encounter one? Or did you need to go to specific system(s)?

Your going to have explain that one to me, what exactly are the "huge number of illogical inputs"
I agree, neither you or I know how hard or easy it is to fix FD's space magic. I don't think however it is an excuse not to do anything about it. I would rather have FD just state, "Due to the design of the game and its limits, this is how things are going to be" I could respect that. I now know not to get my hopes up for more. I do find the clash of FD's supposed dedication to realism and the injection of NPC's "don't follow the same rules as the player" amusing.
Back to the original point of my previous post, it is ironic to see one of the major issues I have with ED plastered on the very anticipated first first contact videos.
The news has hit the BBC.

Although the smokey effect is not unlike those of the human capital ships.
When Today >= 05/01/2017 then run RNG script 'Non Aggressive Encounter' Event Occurrence = Rare
I wonder what the Aliens will do if they find an intelligent Pilot?
I think that's where the simularities end.
I think that the fact that they were able to pull CMDR's out of hyperspace implies one of three things, 1) their ships are capable of locking onto and distrupting human vessels travelling at FTL speeds across the galaxy, or 2) they can not only traverse a hyperspace conduit as we would in supercruise, but they can travel faster than us as well, or 3) both.
All are equally terrifying possibilities.

How about their mode of travel interferes with the FSD? No intention but accidental. For all we know they are pulled out their hyperspace at the same time.
Just another possibility.
Modules rendered useless, but simply scanned before poofing. I'd be remarkably shocked if anything "terrifying" comes of all this...

Our tech is better! We just can't read their ancient crap wakes, just give it time.
