You can kill those units as if they don't have shields, so it's just a visual issue

Thought you might want to investigate this one.

Thanks!

* Fixed a regression introduced in the prior version of the game that caused squads to get... visually confused. Sometimes having forcefields, sometimes mixing ship types inside a squad, etc.
** This seems to be a bug with our pooling behavior for squads, and may recur if more than 6000 squads are ever on one planet at the same time. However, that's unlikely, and by the time that's becoming more likely we're going to not be using this particular pooling code anyway; that code will be deprecated within the month as we move to DrawMeshInstanced instead. The actual root problem here is darn mysterious at the moment, though.
