Summary0026820: High frequency of border aggression spawns
DescriptionIn contrast to my previous games, in this one border aggression seems to have gone berserk, with spawns comparable to waves occurring every few minutes, and suiciding onto my planets. At my current AIP, the wave strength is 200-300, and border aggression seems to be popping every couple of minutes with strength comparable to that, suiciding on my planets.

Two things of note in this save that could be instructive:
1. There's a planet with a ZPG with about 500-700 strength of AI turrets I've never bothered to kill, because they're a pain in the butt. About half of the border aggression gets thrown there, and as a result I've stationed a botnet permanently there to try and deal with it.
2. The border aggression doesn't just get sent to that planet, but when targeting it will sometimes spawn around the map and relocate there.

The saves I've uploaded are a couple minutes over which border aggression increased threat from 0000355:0000500 to 1000, which is a pattern (at the time of the save) which had been going on for over 60 minutes of gameplay. I'm fairly new to playing at this level (expert, difficulty 8) but this behavior is not one I've seen before, as I don't see how anyone could expect to survive versus this level of constant attrition.

Fix a bug where the Border Aggression budget was never being reset to 0 after launching an attack; the budget was purely cumulative over time. This would lead to really huge border aggression assaults in long games
