I've run into a pair of Precursor ships that seem resolutely non-hostile. They've been floating around a system that I'm settling, occasionally turning on their active sensors, but never attacking. When I sent a fleet out, they simply avoided it. Their sensors and engines are miles ahead of mine, so we've just left each other alone so far.
Anyone else run into something like this?
