Summary0000697: [3,718] Devourer Golem breaking AI ships free to attack.
DescriptionAlright, I've tracked down a source of these early game high Mk ships attacking players.

In the attached save, the devourer golem is about to warp into Ralrib (marked P5) on it's way to Zarlo.

It will do it's thing crossing the system, but once the devourer gets about 80% of the way to the Zarlo warp point, the AI units in the system give up on it, break free and head for the Asifiqu warp point on their way towards my homeplanet.

This is a bunch of Mk III units, spearheaded by 3 or 4 gaurdians coming for me at the 11 minute mark.

This is repeatable, I saved/loaded probably 10 times back tracking this so it should happen as soon as you load the save game.

I suspect this was part of what got reported in 0000475 also, but I can't prove that.

Edit: Thinking back on it, I suspect this happened before the 11 minute mark also, I'd see the threat shoot up to 30 or so, but then drop back down to 0 after a few seconds. Maybe the system layout causes these to break free but when in other systems the Devourer kills them all?

Game, save, match ;) this one is nicely stuffed and hanging on my wall. For 3.719:

* Fixed bug where minor faction ships firing upon AI guardians (and other AI ships guarding a guard post) could lead to those AI ships turning into threat, by no fault of the human player.
** Thanks to Dazio for the report and save.

Again, thanks for the diligence in producing that savegame, a reproducible case is worth its weight in gold in things like this.
