I was killing some pirateships not far from corelia spacestation, when I came upon a large group of CorSec fighters. The CorSec ships was not hostile to me, by yellow, therefor open to attack. As I had wiped out the reds, I picked a CorSec fighter and shot it.
The effect of that is that the fighter you target gets red, and start to fight back (natualy). But, the rest of the CorSec squadron stays yelow.
Now, I would have guessed that they should help their friend. And I could kill CorSecs all day, and they'd still be friendly to me.
This have two impacts realy:
1: No reality, In a real world, CorSec had outlawed you for killing their pilots, and sent Boba Fett to get you.
2: If you can find a spawningplace whith only yellow ships, you have a perfectly safe XP farming spot. And safe XP farming is boring.

This has been an issue since beta and i can not agree more. It also allows the neutral pilots to have an easy run. They can sit outside a imp or rebel base and shoot at one at a time, get a lot of xp fast and not have to worry about having 10 fighters shooting at them. I honestly have no idea what the devs were thinking by not adding in some sort of auto-agro for the yellows or faction based like the ground. Maybe one day it will get fixed up, but at for the moment i would not hold my breath.

Hehe. This is like how it is in Matrix Online - you can walk up to a mob and attack, and the related mobs just ignore you.
I hope that they will fix it soon...

I get the same problem with rebel ships as an RSF pilot, I can attack 1 and only that 1 will react, the others will ignore me.

I find it stupid at the fact I shoot at a small group of ships and they keep on flying infront of me, instead of breaking up and calling for help.
JTL AI needs updating, and Space needs the same systemfor factions as the ground.

If you go overt and attack ships they will all attack, plus you get FP for the kills (30fp for a teir 4
)
