Engineerinnnnnnnnnnnng.... or rather surface prospecting for stuff and USS salvage hunting then splurging on engineering crack.
I was at Shinrarta Dezhra last night and the first time leaving there was an NPC hauler (I think, might have been an Adder) sitting mid station like it was queuing the leave but the slot was full, but a bit further back than usual. I slowed up behind it, waited a few seconds then the station started shooting the NPC with the NPC commenting "oh no my ship" I ducked under it and out. After I had come back I hopped out of my Asp into my Corvette to do a bit more to that and just as I took off a (nice) commander announced "Conda incoming" (sorry I forget your name) so there was me just lifted off I see a big pad lit up just in front and to the right I go up and to the left a bit but he's going further up and to my left. Ok, I'm not blocking him, must be going to another pad I can't see and I make my normal way out, then as I;m halfway through the slot I see the ominous white blob of a Beluga closing in (that must be going to the pad I saw) but marvellously despite being an NPC ship it stopped and allowed me the space to leave.
NPCs, stupid and smart.
