Gallic Navy and Police aren't set to friendly. Kusari ain't either. RP wise both should be, but I can assure you they are not.
This seems to be (still!) a problem with the "IMG inside Gallic space" ID problem.
Stop using "IMG Guard" bc that does not exist any more.
If you run into trouble with that "IMG in Occupation ZOne" ID, please post it as a bug report.
We have had such a load of trouble with that... but the general idea is good.
I'm sorry buddy but I won't report this as a bug since mechanically it's working as intended. Besides, not only does it appear opinions are split on this issue, it also seems well known. Instead of abolishing the IMG guard you could simply adjust the guards IFF (you may want certain factions still not to be able to dock). However, before any changes are implemented it might be a good idea to start a poll since opinions differ and not everyone may want the current situation changed - even though it's inconsistent.
> GRP (Gallic Police) ships trigger Java to shoot them? => That is definitely a bug. Makes zero sense. GRP and GRN are the reasons that IMG stations in Taus have that "Gallic Occupation IMG" IFF.
> KSP (Kusari Police) ships trigger Java to shoot them? => That is also a bug. KSP (after the retcon of the Gallia-Kusari mess in Taus) is a neutral entity to Gallia and IMG. So, makes zero sense as well.
Therefore, irp-consequences are uncalled for.
Report your observations as bugs because you are the only one who actually knows what happens when.
I agree it doesn't make sense - but the mechanic works fine. IMG guard is set hostile to both Kusari/Gallia, thus Holman/Java attack Kusari/Gallia law enforcement. This is no mechanical bug, it's just an absurdity. However, it should be easily reproducible for you - just create a navy/police pilot from either Kusari or Gallia and approach either Java or Holman. If you encounter the same issue you can feel free to report this as a bug, but (yes you may call me stubborn) I won't do it.
Regarding to FL Stat Java station and Holman outpost actually have the IMG (Gallic Occupation) IFF. That's not IMG Guard. There is no RP done to set IMG (Gallic Occupation) hostile to GRN. In other words, Jack is right and it's a bug.
