    Type: OPV

    Summary: Approaching OPV resulted to strange issue.

    Description:Approaching OPV resulted to strange issue. I set first AI off and gm iv in order to approach a specific OPV for testing purposes. All AI supposed to be stationary. By approaching it it vanishes and in console I got the information to inform some guy named "Eric" regarding a ghost vessel or something. The exact message can be seen in attached screenshot.

    The same attempt to approach by means of tt results in CoQ

    Steps to Reproduce:
    1) On a sector playfield execute ai off
    2) Execute gm iv
    3) Approach a previously bookmarked OPV

    Ah I forgot to tell you. Don't use the AI off command until you are within render range of the patrol vessel, otherwise it won't actually appear when you approach it.

    So first approach it until you can see it then use ai off.
    Remember to use ai on before approaching other OPVs too.
    I don't think this is a bug, since ai off disables the AI system, including entity spawning.

    So in other words, I am supposed to waste time chasing a moving target 10ths of thousands kilometres away?

    No there's no need to waste any time.
    You have the ability to teleport yourself and your ship to anywhere you can click on the map. You can teleport near a patrol vessel then manually fly closer until it renders.
