	When I was watching a Interceptor chase after a UFO I noticed it seemed to adjust its path every 5 minutes. If this is the case (didnt spend any time testing it to be sure), maybe the UFOs correct/alter their path on a similar schedule (if they don't reach their waypoint during that time). --[[User:Sfnhltb\|Sfnhltb]] 13:08, 19 March 2007 (PDT)		When I was watching a Interceptor chase after a UFO I noticed it seemed to adjust its path every 5 minutes.
