Here you see a lucky shot we caught of a Sidewinder in the same system you saw the cruisers battling it out. The Sidewinder has its landing lights and cargo/docking hub lights on, which I suspect would not normally be on during battle. It also captures our current work investigating how ships are visualised in space so you can see their direction of travel one of various visual clues to aid tracking other ships.
