Archwing Enemy Ai Is Thwarted By Concave/divoted Asteroid Surface

[xorelock]

Archwing enemies are easily caught in the spawn by asteroid surfaces that have concavity/divots in them. I suspect this is because they are caught in a local minima and the most direct route to the player is deeper into the divot (durrrr).

 

As soon as i fly around behind such an enemy, it sees me and easily exits the divot to attack me (ie, it is *NOT* actually trapped inside of the asteroid).

 

This is easily reproduced when cleaning up after an interception wave, most/all of the enemies stuck at the spawns but are *not actually* stuck inside the asteroid if you approach it from the right angle.
