Summary0026157: Ark Empire having problems with phase 2 overlord phasing
Description Some other comments by Inc on discord https://discord.com/channels/240637654717300736/242012213580136448/934838886088208476

I was "testing" Ark Empire with difficulty 6 AI, and found that if i don't move my ark from AI homeworld/bastion, the AI Overlord doesn't phase out even on reaching it's target. So i actually have to escape bastion/HW territory to be able to finish the AI off.

Oh, I missed this part of the discussion.

I guess this might be by design, or the player ark should be barred from AI bastion worlds (dangerous), or the overlord phase 2 should un-phase when in the presence of an enemy king.

I think the best approach is to ban Arks from Bastion Worlds due to "AI radiation", but that will require a good message explaining why you can't move your Ark there.

The second best approach to me is that phase 2 just immediately unphases if the player ark is there.

I think the current behaviour isn't adequate because we are now leaving the player to figure out what is going on, and it's not intuitive

Thanks!

* "forced_to_be_this_state_of_matter_when_on_former_or_current_ai_homeworld_or_bastion_worlds" is now "forced_to_be_this_state_of_matter_when_on_former_or_current_ai_homeworld_or_bastion_worlds_unless_enemy_king_present"
** In an Ark Empire, when you take your Ark over to the AI homeworlds, it will now actually fight you, in other words.
