AI Bugs Back Again ... being attacked by clean AI that never go wanted

[OCD]

Since the last update ive had a few battles at RES that didnt go my way
Seemed to have more than the visible wanted ships firing at me
When i fired back at those firing at me I then became wanted and
just got out with 1.5m of damage !

Today I found the issue at a NAV point whilst killing a few pirates

A sidey started shooting at me so I turned to look at him, he was clean,
I had no bounties, I had report crimes against me set to Yes and he
just fired and fired tearing my shields down. I didnt fire back as I
would get wanted doing that.

After avoiding him and engaging another few actual wanted targets
I noticed after 5 mins he had turned wanted and I killed him.

I have also noticed that since the last batch of changes when AI
start shooting at you it can take 30 seconds before they go wanted
or in some cases now ... 5 minutes.

Please can we get the basic AI stuff stable ... we're going backwards
again. Am I missing something ...? Is anyone else seeing the same.

Also, with the last release my stut..tut.tutters are back when
doing the final approach into systems. I was alomost gone.

Are you pledged to a powerplay faction. If you are and in certain territories belonging to rivals and such then the rivals supporters can shoot you down without getting wanted.

Are yous ure you have no bounty?
I had the same. One scaned me and fired on me after without turning wanted. But I have large bounty in other systems thanks to PP and so I guess that's how it has to be. If I scan someone that has bounty I can shoot him too and stay clean.

I had this happen last night...No bounty anywhere, no power affiliation. Was just doing regular RES hunting. Came upon a wing with a Python and a sidewinder. Took out the WANTED python first and then targeted his wing mate. I was about to unleash hell but then I saw CLEAN...I held off and then this little turd starts pelting me with pulse lasers. Enraged, I danced my clipper around it waiting for the CLEAN to turn WANTED....nothing. So I figured, forget it, and zoomed away to my next target. Take out a couple more pirates and this same NPC finally catches up to me and starts firing, this time though, CLEAN to WANTED. I enjoyed destroying that ship more than anything that day.

100% - whilst i was being beefed by the sidey I went into my left screen and checked - nothing - no bounties at all in any systems

ding ding that age old beta wanted bug is back again
I suspect there has been some tinkering with the friendly fire code that has impacted this
now certin AI get to remove your shields and 20% of hull before becoming wanted

My frustration is the more new content we add the more stable core things become broken again

thanks for the comments everyone i will fire a ticket in
