On 2 Korolov escort missions with non-Antilles freighters, the freighter has taken unusual paths to reach its destination. The ship still reaches the correct point, but does not take a straight-line path and has thrown in unusual snaking turns. System had an asteroid belt with multiple pirate/hostile stations, but I had cleared them out before the mission.
My best wild guess: Does the ship AI try to avoid hostile stations now? Does it know when the hostile station is now defunct? The ship didn't quite take an optimum path to avoid the stations, but it mostly worked.
Korolov freighters taking evasive route?

I noticed a Centurion doing this while flying to a station - he flew around a Kobol station, so perhaps that is what they're doing.
Last Cause Of Death: Destroyed by Karl Svalbard's last Lucifer missile, right after I blew him up. And the crowd cheers.
