So I warped into a complex and cloaked up as soon as I landed so I could get a position on the next gate and surprise you-know-what the first guy who comes to run this when he warps into the second room....

However, after cloaking the sentry guns red-boxed my cloaked ship and stayed locked on it. They didn't appear to be shooting though since I wasn't taking any damage....

I'm not actually planning on ganking anyone in the first room. However, if I were, this would be a big problem because the sentry guns are locked on my cloaked ship (which should not be possible) and therefore probably won't aggro my prey when he comes.

I hope this isn't a new "pro carebear" feature or something..... It's hard enough to catch people running gated plexes as it is. Oo

Might have something to do with the "-NPC's will always aggress you when you warp into their aggression range." from the Tuesday's patch? Hopefully just a bug.

There were rats on the field too but only the sentry guns did this.
