1.3.2.9 Bug - Pirates Not Attacking unarmed ships

Note that the game was started in around version 1.3.2.3, the bug was also happening in that version and all versions in between.

Bug:
Pirate ships are not attacking my constructors or colony ships. My ships can stop literally right next to a 5 stack fleet and on the pirates turn they will not attack them and just move right pass them as if they aren't there.


-This has happened on several occasions meaning its a pattern of behavior and not a one off fluke
-Difficulty Setting is gifted
-Have not been able to test what happens if my ships have weapons or Armour
-Have not been able to test if the AI opponents also exhibit this behavior


I have a save from when before the pirates move, and after they move and ignore my ships

I spend so much time carefully avoiding them i never noticed.  Went in with an unarmed surveyor and parked next to a P fleet.  Indeed they just sat there

I was doing the same thing lol. It wasn't until I was mid game that I had so many constructors that I didn't really care if i lost one. One of the ships auto moved next to the pirates and I had that WTF moment, then decided not to do anything about it. That's when i noticed :P

We need to be careful we do not make this a habit or we are in for a rude surprise once they fix it 8(| XD
