Ok, not really, but has anyone else been just flying around -- in my case scaveng- foraging after kicking pirate butt in Charon -- followed by their faithful Mule Auton (my prize from Korolov for defeating the Fortress), when suddenly a T3-armed transport and it's flock of Zulus flies in and docks with the mule? And stays with it even after I fly off a little ways and it follows? I stopped, and hovered fretfully around. I was just so shocked, with my current humble Wolfen I could have easily taken them, but I decided aearlier gainst the cargo upgrade for speed's sake, and I didn't want the Mule caught in the inevitable cross-fire. They finished whatever they were doing, and flew off.
It wasn't as dire as it sounds, since AFAICT I didn't actually lose any of the loot on the mule, but it was just bizarre. I've never seen that happen! Although this is the first time I've ever encountered the T3/Zulu group in Charon at all. Interestingly, and amusingly, the only other friendly station in this incarnation of the Charon system was another, unthreatened, fully functioning Korolov Shipping Station.
It's been a weird night, what can I say? If they come back, I'm going to pretend they are Mule-seeking perverts and blast them.
My Mule has been violated!

Evan better, the functioning Korolov station has me running escort missions to take supplies to the one under construction. That's too much like real life at this point. At least they're short flights.
Is it because the mule auton has a nav beacon tracker on it? I mean, you can see it on the overhead map; the AI would somehow calculate them as a possible course. Hmm, if you added a code so that if the T3 could take the mule items like the corporates do, it would add a small amount of depth to the game.
