All Placement modules spawn 1 guard group in addition to number selected in placement options

[SavageCDN]

As reported on ALiVE forums:

when using custom objectives that if you tell the module that you want one infantry group, it will spawn one group inside the custom marker zone, but it will also spawn a group outside of that zone. So instead of only getting one group of units I end up with two

Trying to get more info (mods used, if any)

This is because every objective has a guard group

So options are zero groups or 2 or more groups?

[DavisBrown723]

Should always place a guard group, that's probably unintended. Maybe a moduke option would be a good way to convey this to users (and provide flexibility? Thoughts? @friznit @highhead

Makes sense just confusing to users methinks

[HeroesandvillainsOS]

So it will always add one? 2=3, 3=4, etc?

Unless there's a technical reason why this needs to happen, it sounds like a bug. Given that I am using override settings then the placement modules should only spawn the number of groups that I define.
