look, it's year 2020 and nothing was done to this since disco's release, although it feels like it should've been fixed years ago

NPCs turning caps over is a major issue, especially if you're flying a big cap such as ishtar or valor, which are quite vulnerable if turned 90 degrees over

Disable NPCs all together, except in PvE zones and as traffic. They are also awfully annoying when they swarm a ship and attract its aim. If one shoots them, more will just appear out of nowhere in seconds.

Npcs are for missions, PvE zones and ok... cap patrols as home systems decoration (decoration that gets evil if you annoy it). Who enjoys becoming ping-pong ball cuz 100 times smaller NPC ship came and is trying to penetrate to some dread multiple times?

Also ones that cut trade lanes, making our daily powertrade go from unfunny to annoying.

P.S. While sector C5 in Sigma-59 would be nice to have NPC bombers. With snacs. It's a special place.

Yes it do, NPC that crash in you and die can only do it once, and thats hell of a lot of better than NPC that crash in you constantly.
