I'm REALLY frustrated right now. I just got rammed by an erratically flying NPC ship (no other "real" players in my zone at the time) coming in to dock at a station with my hold full of expensive metals. I wasn't flying fast but the NPC blasted out of the station and thrusted sideways into me. Because I was running without shields to maximize cargo, the impact ended me. I lost my Hauler, my cargo (about $200k worth), and I'm left with the $150k in credits that I had saved which is less than 50% of my net worth five minutes ago.
NPCs are terrible flyers. I can't count how many of them are stuck in the mouth of a station clogging up the only opening or being shot at inside the station. I've even gotten shot accidentally when the station started shooting at one. They also always stick right to the middle when multiple ships are entering & exiting a station. Should so many ships get shot at INSIDE a station? Really?
My question is, can we get the NPCs to fly slightly better and have a little respect for other pilots? Please?
