Summary0002458: Lots of stuff says "Guard Posts Keeping This Alive:" for no apparent reason.
DescriptionSo far I've seen: Guard posts of every stripe, command stations, warp gates, the AI Eye (which is what it's supposed to be for), and force fields, all get it everywhere no matter what.

But then there's one or two planets where /everything/ seems to have it, including guardians and fleet ships. See for instance Murdoch on this save.

It's just for any ship on-planet if there's an AI Eye I think. I've seen it for everything from missile frigates to fortresses.

Doesn't seem to be the eye.

Just started a fresh game and the first system I conquered the command station had the "3 sources guarding this station" message, but it wasn't actually being guarded.

There were 3 guard posts in the system, but none of them were shield guard posts.

There was a short-range, a missile and a special forces guard post present.

There were also wormhole guard posts present, but they didn't seem to count.

Edit: In the second system, there are 2 non-wormhole guard posts. Every unit in the system, including the guardposts, has the "Guardposts keeping this alive: 2" note.

Edit the second: While cleaning up my first system, the message is counting number of non-wormhole guard posts left alive in the system and displaying the message, even after the command station is dead. I can see the number of guardposts in the message drop as I destroy them.

Even better! The guard post counter is showing up on my own ships sometimes!

Care to tell us what was causing such a weird bug?

I just had it apply to all ships, I missed checking the property to see if it actually needed it.
