Have any of you had a similar incident.

So i was wonder ing if anybody has had a similar occurrence to the one i have just had

So im nicely cruising around in my type 7 heading to a station when a random npc that happens to be in the system with me comments he is surprised that i made it this far with such a valuable cargo (208 resonating separators) to try and keep him from interdicting me i drop out of frame shift and re enter it to get him to despawn continue to the station and drop out safely next thing i know about 3k from the station entrance on my way to dock mr scan happy npc boosts into my type 7 dies and gets me charged with murderer and needless to say the station dozent like that.

Has anyone had an occurrence like this it costed me almost 3 mil :(
 
An NPC attacked me close to a station yesterday, which I've never seen before. Seems like the AI misjudged the approach and as you were speeding got 50% of the blame.
 
My type6 was full of garrison supplies yesterday, and I did have an NPC talk about mother-lode or whatever but I hightailed it to my next jump before she could get me!
 
no the station killed me for it

and as for my speed i never saw him he flew into my side i think its just the weirdness that a npc followed me out of ftl and then proceeded to boost straight into my side.
 
Well they will follow you now in and out of supercruise all the way to the station and beyond. That itself is not a bug but rather a feature. But him ramming you for no reason? Maybe he dropped out of SC right next to you? The AI does make mistakes after all.
 
If you were going under 100 M/s you would not be speeding and would not have been done for killing him.

As for following you to the station, yes I've had these lately, it appears that once they start something they like to finish it.

I've had a few occasions while smuggling where a security ship has interdicted and tried to scan me. I boost away and go back into supercruise as they start shooting. The security ship then follows me all the way to the station and keeps shooting.
In fact, even while I was docked inside the station they get saying over comm's thins like 'begging attack run now' the whole time. He was still there when I left and followed me into a USS while I did an assassination mission, shooting away.

The only way I got rid of them was to let them interdict again and this time win. Strange behaviour.
 
I had an NPC fire a missile at my Anaconda once. I was preparing to enter the station and saw the missile on my radar. He must have been outside of the NFZ, because nobody cared. The missile went boom, not even a scratch. I LOL'd, considered turning around and going for him, but did not. I found this odd, as I was not harassed at all while in SC heading toward the system. I counted it as one of the many bugs in this game and moved on.

Stay below the 100m/s limit when you are in the no fire zone and you won't need to see them coming. They will get the blame for ramming you then.
 
so how do you think i wouldn't have been killed if if i wasn't speeding LeetNoob? getting a bounty for killng a npc is just that and the weird thing is i got a bounty from a pirate that followed me to the station do you get charged with murder if you kill a pirate without ever scanning him. the main thing that has me is that my favorite trade route is blocked from me for the next 5 days.

@dayrth ah i see.

Nah! keep doing the trade route, just don't get scanned!
 
ah i see thank you for the advice dayrth still shouldn't i not get a bounty from an pirate that followed me to the station? unless killing a pirate before you scan him counts as murder i know that shooting one before you scan them is a crime. the main thing that es me off about this is now my favorite trade route is blocked from me for the next 5 days thanks to the bounty.
 
Was scanned, threatened whilst on the landing pad of a military outpost. Took off and killed him (Dropship) needless to say his bounty was far greater than the small fine for shooting in a no fire zone.
 
Interdicted with illegal goodies by a security Eagle in my Cobra. Boosted away in real space so he didn't get a scan off. Back into SC and entered the station instance. Was lining up for a smugglers entry (10 KM directly in line with the slot) when the sec Eagle appears again shooting at me.

I make for the slot with him behind. I see his shots hitting the station as I enter the slot. No response from the station. I sell the illegal goodies and still see him on the contact screen waiting outside. Decided to exit to menu and when I came back he was gone.
