Summary0024617: Praetorian Guard only spawns at first AI's homeworld in multi-AI games
DescriptionPraetorian Guard only spawns at first AI's homeworld in multi-AI games. This leads to a massive buildup of Praetorians on the first AI and none for any of the other AIs. Attached is a save debugged to 600 AIP with 4 AIs where all the Praetorians are spawning in at the first AI's homeworld. Use the Praetorian Threat filter and Watch All debug to see them all on the first AI's homeworld.

Happens only to Diff 8 and above. This may have inadvertently made high diff multi AI games easier.

This problem was not unique to high difficulty AIs.
    Fix a problem where there would not be enough Praetorian Guards for all
    the AIs.
    
    A change was made in early march to make sure that at least one
    Praetorian Guard was added to the game lobby. Unfortunately the code in
    run when removing unndeeded factions from previous config when entering
    the game lobby would then remove the Praetorians.
    
    If you had multiple AIs then the game would remove all the praetorians
    and then add a single one back in. The end result of this would be that
    only one AI would have a Praetorian Guard
