Taxiing rules

I was taxiing behind that cappuccino aircraft on the left (I am the GOL 737), when suddenly that blue Orbit 737 was cleared to taxi and rushed headlong across my paths.
It nearly collided with the other AI aircraft.... and it would surely have collided with me hadn't I promptly braked.
In real life, in what order should the three aircrafts have entered the taxiway?

Hard to say, since I have no idea where the Orbit came from? ???

I sometimes see thinks like that going on, but when aircraft are on approach. They come in together (within a few feet of each other), then one pulls up at the last minute, whilst the other lands.

2 ways

The tan plane would go first
You would go
Orbit would go

OR

Tan plane goes
Orbit goes
You go

Depends on which aircraft ATC asks to hold short

ATC didn't ask any of us three to hold short in this case. It's a bug, I deem. OK, so in real life ATC would have instructed the Orbit to hold the position, as logic would have it.

Correct
