NPC troubles.

[Kontrazec (Somni)]

Is there really no way at all to fix the godlike NPC collision? I mean, I'm sick and tired of pirate npc's locking my train right in front of a tradelane by ramming for minutes at a time! I'd say okay if the pirates used say...gunboats. Force transitions would make some sense then. But a dagger rams me and I start spinning like a bloody drunk cow in front of the tradelane ring. I'd be happy to do whatever I can with my limited knowledge of computers and programming, but I refuse to believe that in a game you can make a ship yourself and set its mass,turning,etc etc, you can't mod NPC's to at least be realistic and if not CRASH into your ship and take heavy hull damage, at least make them bounce off and let you stay on course. Same thing with commodities in space. What, are they anchored by a singularity? Hiding a black hole? It's like you hit a station when you hit an NPC or a commodity in space.:angry:

Sucks to be a weight on the wrong side of the brilliance-insanity scale.
