When I try to rescue people myself (instead of letting some L Container Ship do the job), the behavior of Space Suites is extremely annoying:
1. They choose who gets to dock first in the second I am close enough
2. The command they use is critical, meaning it cannot be aborted
3. They build up distance and avoid effective rescue.
With some ships I managed to get the job done, nevertheless, although it's extremely annoying to wait until the Space Suite completed the path of their choosing.
But with the Hyperion I think it's outright impossible. No matter what I do, the space suites suddenly find a hidden thruster pack and accelerate to 250m/s to drive away from the ship that is desperately trying to rescue them. Patience also did not help here, because even after building a distance of over 5 km, they don't even think about flying in the correct direction.
My suggestions are:
1. Don't make the command critical. It should be possible to cancel the approach and, e.g. let another rescue ship take over (or at least make it auto-cancel at a distance of 10km or so).
2. Don't try so super hard to build up insane distances, and don't add cheat engines to the space suite that makes them fly 250m/s
3. Don't let the suites decide on their own, let them wait for a command (and if it's too hard to implement the possibility to give commands to space suites, at least shorten the distance before they react, so that you need to be already pretty close)
Would appreciate any improvements on this feature.
Please fix in 7.60 that Space Suites actively avoid being rescued

Again, if you think there's something actually wrong here, please report it in the Public Beta Feedback forum and provide the information requested at the top of that forum with your report.

No no, it's broken in the stable branch. I am not playing the public beta.
But since in the announcement it says, that the 7.60 concentrates on "refine and optimize your playing experience", I thought that would be a good candidate.
I am assuming that many people who bought the DLC would like to also use the Hyperion as their main ship. And then it is probably desirable that all the game mechanics are working with that ship.
