Has anyone noticed this?
I'll be in a system flying through SC and get a new contact notification then select the target. As I'm moving to position for a simple scan the target disappears just as it gets into scan view.
The other scenario is I'll be flying through SC and several NPC contacts appear. If I come to a stop they will disappear. If I accelerate again at any speed they appear.
In both situations the actual NPC still exists. I can see their SC light. To test this I had an NPC pirate after me. I came to a stop and the contact item for the NPC disappeared. I could still see it fly towards me, get in position behind me and interdict me. Only then could I select the target.
