Summary	0013959: AI H/K Factory triggering at inappropriate times
Description	Sometimes the AI's H/K Factory will trigger without any AI units being killed on that Homeworld or any adjacent world. In the attached save game, do the following steps: 1) Load the game. 2) Pause immediately upon load - before the "X massive ships enroute to your planets" message appears. The game time should be 27:18:34. 3) Switch to the starmap. Do not switch to any other systems; leave the human Homeworld selected. 4) Switch back to the planet view. 5) Let the game run. 6) Sometime in the next 90 seconds, the AI homeworld way off to the right will active its H/K Factory and suddenly there will be a new H/K Mk I enroute. 7) If you hit time 27:20:00 without it happenening, reload from the beginning and try again. The actual time the H/K spawns is random - it's been within a few seconds of the load, and it's been more than 5 minutes after. But 90% of the time, it'll happen in the first 90 seconds after load. I've included a log file that shows some of the times it has happened. It happens even if I shut down AI War and reload, or reboot my PC.

keith.lamothe Apr 13, 2014 4:46 pm administrator ~0035941	For 7.021: * Fixed a bug where Core Hunter/Killer Factories could be triggered under the "friendly unit died on neighboring planet" rule when that dying unit was actually nowhere not on a neighboring planet at all. Thanks! :)
