Okay. *pant* Almost got this working.
Events in FRED are correct, since I set the relativity to True. I know it's working because the ships aren't operating due to the FS2 RETAIL ai profile being active.
I created a new Ai_profiles.tbl with newtonian physics turned on. This is how it looks:

EDIT: Just found the Profiles tab in Mission Specs.
It works! Woot! Thanks so much for the help along the way!
