Caretaker does not leave a ghost building model behind in fog of war once spotted, it only (sometimes?) leaves a decal consisting of few black lines on the ground.

It also has radar wobble despite being a static building, meaning I have to manually target where it is if I want to hit it despite clearly seeing where it is from scouting.

This is a longstanding fight between Kloot and I. Caretaker are technically not structures but functionally they are. They used to have ghosts and no radar wobble until the hax that implemented this behaviour was stripped from the engine. It recently became possible to selectively remove radar wobble from a unit on a per-allyteam basis, and in this update I finished a gadget that used this ability.

You should check again and be sure that Caretakers (and Strider Hub) radar wobble. When I last tested they did not.

I must admit I didn't read the entire changelog. Aren't the ghosts drawn with some widget wizardry?
