Those Wily NPCs

Let me tell you about them. They are so crafty now, trying to lull you into a false sense of security by not even moving. Shoot them all you want. They won't budge an inch.
I used to think their rotisserie maneuver was impressive. This beats it, hands down. No question.
 
What is this? A new bug?
No, it's just in res sites, occasionally a wanted NPC will be lurking behind an asteroid, usually close to a ship that is mining.
It looks like the games AI waits until the player gets close, then the wanted NPC will start moving.

Nope.
I've had three wanted npcs in a row refuse to move 13K above the asteroid belt.
It also happens in "weapons fire" USS.
