Default Re: Pointer Mod
This is because it has the same family number as a ship component. You must _never_ have the same family numbers on such families of vehicle-specific components. The AI is very stupid and interprets that Scout Infantry as the most advanced Version of the family of components that it really wants to use on the ship.

This problem will also manifest itself in some very quirky upgrade bugs.
