Summary0025324: DZ strange behaviour.
DescriptionDZ sometimes will have strange behaviour where it will leave a command station on a planet alive leading to never ending trench warfare if the player is not observing the planet actively. I will try to reproduce save files. It can be observed when letting the DZ attack the AIHW cluster, where even after destroying all the dire GP, unless you directly observe the planet, the DZ will not actively focus on attacking the OL.

I don't actually understand this error report at all as what it's complaining about. What, for example, is the "OL"?

In any case, if there is different behaviour when a player is observing the planet or not observing the planet and this is a bug then it's a problem with the coarse grained processing for factions when players aren't observing them, and nothing to do with the faction in question.

However, that being said, there may well be an actual bug here.

OL = Overlord. Basically the DZ when not observed would not kill command stations. When directly observed, the DZ moves in for the kill. The trench warfare described is basically the DZ building structures on the planet after destroying all the turrets, but destroyed the Command station, which allows the command station to rebuild turret remains and the cycle continues. The Overlord is a special case since the Dark Zenith would not destroy the Overlord unless the player had vision on the planet. I can try to reproduce the scenario on Intensity 10 DZ and diff 9 AI.

But did not destroy the command station after destroying all turrets*
