NPC factions and derelicts (Station Play Through)

[TheStorm]

I've had entire ships of civilian and merchant ships completely abandoned because they sent everyone to die in a random derelict ships. This often led me to have 10-15 refugees at all times in my station until someone comes to pick them up. While this happens less with bigger ships, it almost always ends up with a resuce crew/retrieve corpes quest. I've noticed that they refuse to use their combat robots to try to save them, so I think giving the ability to sent them along on away missions would be very helpful to reduce the instant away team death.

very good point
