    Summary: Freighter self destructs on collision

    Description: A NPC freighter self destructed on collision with my CV.
    I was at the Sky Guys bar when I got a message that a freighter was going to self destruct in 4 minutes.
    When I went outside I saw that a Sunseeker had rammed my CV and was at a standstill.
    I moved my CV out of the way but the Sunseeker remained stalled.
    I exited the game, made a backup of the save game file, then reloaded and found the Sunseeker was still stalled and it blew up a few minutes later.

    Save game is enclosed, but the only thing you will see is the Sunseeker blow itself up after a few minutes.

    This does have me thinking, perhaps all the other times I have randomly seen that message was because NPC CV's were getting stuck and blowing themselves up.

    Steps to Reproduce: I'm guessing have a NPC CV ram your (or another factions) build.

    I wonder if this would work with a Zirax Dreadnaught... Hmmm

    No they aren't spawned as freighters.

    Ok, the issue is repeatable.

    I deliberately blocked the path of a CV freighter and it rage quit by self destructing.

    As in, they do not self destruct when disabled.
    But I have had them vanish after reloading a game.
