For all I know, that's what they're doing...*unless* you specifically tell them not to.

Silent Running doesn't help me very much. It helps before you are detected the first time, and you need to switch off Battlestation command. Once you are detected, I find that silent running is useless, it doesn't make any difference, I have tested this with all activated enemy detection cones: They don't get smaller (tested with IRAI 0.41, but in TWoS this may have been tweaked differently.)
