Summary0002267: Camouflaged Warp Gate Guardian
DescriptionIn my current game, I have on one planet 3 camouflaged AI ships - an engineer, a warp gate guardian and a MRS.
Afaik, guardians should not be camouflaged.
Also, if the AI is a camouflager, why aren't the other ships camouflaged?

Save attached, the planet in question is Karkzi.

Well, camouflaging only working on ships that have been still for a second or two.

I do agree that warp gate guardians should not be camouflaging, or at least give it self-attrition on enemy worlds like special forces guardians.

Quick question, do tachyon warheads reveal camouflaged units?

No, they don't. To find the guardian you need to go near it.
The only 100% method to find it and the other 2 ships is killing the command station.

Hmm, the fact there is no way to reveal camouflaged unit except by being near it seems a little busted. Yes, camouflaging implies they can hide from traditional revealing, but camouflaging does not seem like it should be very effective against planet wide explosions. (It doesn't matter how well hidden you are, an explosion is going to hurt) Plus, it leads to silliness such as this.

* All spirecraft, guardians, and hunter/killers are now immune to camouflaging.
