Subject is pretty self explanitory, I've attached a save game where you can see the behavior.
You may have to run south a little bit to prevent the bugs coming for you. Either way, the spitters won't stop shooting the ground.
I did find a few other reported bugs similar to this, but they were all marked as resolved in previous releases.

medium spitter at {1053.34, -82.0} is trying to shoot train near {89, 85}. This is 977 units far

So... does that mean there needs to be a proximity check for spitter attacks?

Thanks, this has been fixed in 0.18.10.
