Summary0022888: Having a combat factory on an enemy planet has spawned drones attacking and triggering Guard Posts
DescriptionI find it often useful to send my combat factories with my fleets onto an enemy planet because of their sentry frigates and potential other supporting ships (I like to give them my forcefield frigates so i can use my fleet hotkeys properly without fear of giving a wormhole-guarding frigate an attack order).
Doing this means that their drones go on and activate all the Guard Posts at once though.
TagsNo tags attached.

Do you have some saves showing this behaviour? It's hard to test behavioural changes without a scenario that's known to be problematic.

Solved in the next version, thanks!

* The various drones that had been switched over to the "drone gun" format as of a few weeks ago have been returned to the regular drone behavior.

* Pretty much all drones use the new Aggo Invisibility ability.
** They can still go hit things right next to guard posts without causing an issue, and they can even hit guard posts that have already emptied their guards.
** Guard posts can even still shoot at these drones if the guard post has any weapons, though the drones can't shoot back until the guard post is aggro'd by something else. These drones would not bother going near the guard post unless there was something else there to shoot, though.
