Stellaris - Necrophage purge leads to all xenos escaping

[Mik1984]

Description
Necrophage purge leads to all xenos escaping

Game Version
4.0.10

What version do you use?
Steam

What expansions do you have installed?


Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Previously each necro purge had 75% of successful assimilation and 25% of the pop escaping. Currently, if you get the escape roll, it does not result in the pops that were to be consumed escaping, but it causes the entire xeno population to escape.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Begin game as fanatic purifier necros. On average 4 months when you roll that 25% chance, all xeno pops will disappear.

Bumping, especially because I found out what is causing the bug. In refugee_events.txt, the event refugee.4 is being called when a displaced pop is rolled. If the displaced pops can't be a valid refugee (for whatever reason, in the early game they probably can't find a suitable empire to displace to, but that's just a hunch) then the event literally calls to kill all the pops of the affected species. Add into a mod that deletes this one line and purging works as normal as far as I can tell after testing.

# Pop group is made refugee (triggered)
pop_group_event = {
    id = refugees.4
    title = OK
    desc = OK

    hide_window = yes
    is_triggered_only = yes

    immediate = {
        if = {
            limit = { is_valid_refugee_pop = yes }
            save_event_target_as = refugee_pop #Must be saved for refugee_pop_effect to work
            refugee_pop_effect = yes
        }
        else = { kill_all_pop = yes } ### Delete this line and everything works fine as normal
    }
}

This is probably the same cause of the issue that is breaking Genesis Symbiotes Hive Minds starting pre-sapients. The other issue is that the default species rights for Hiveminds seems to be "Undesirable" instead of "Slavery" good detective work on this, hopefully the Dev's fix this easy one since its breaking many playstyles.

So I poked around this. It is clearly wrong the script effect kills all pops in the pop group and almost all the purge events have a separate variable tracking the number of pops purged: "local_pop_amount". Which is what I assume this was supposed to be using.
