Done in 1a2a27b.

Wave enemies now ignore the detection radius their components otherwise respect and close on the nearest building from wherever they arrived.

The flag is per INSTANCE, not per definition: the same chaser is a wave when the director launches it and a garrison when a map author places it, and a planet garrison that chased you across the system would be a very different thing from what the editor is used to place. Both halves are pinned - a wave chaser 6000px out closed on a crafter, an identically built one nobody sent held station.

What it fights on the way was already right: a vessel inside 520px outranks a building further off, and the targeting searches the whole player_ships group, so the fleet and an outpost's garrison both count.
