Please improve the pathing around stars.

I get that the autopilot basically just straight lines you at your destination. And if you end up in a star's corona, it will try to move you around it. Thing is, it should path around it to begin with. Within X range of a star, it starts the path around, and then continues straight when there's no more obstruction.

Autopilot doesn't feature any pathing. It just accelerates you straight towards the destination. Any change in course is the result of environmental factors applying acceleration in other directions and it isn't a deliberate move by the autopilot.
