[6931] Something strange with Colony Bases

#1 Post by Herode »

In the system Babel alpha, there is a homeworld planet populated by Chato (my starting planet).
The local shipyard has just produced a Colony base.
Unfortunately, this Colony base is populated with exobots.
This weird behavior shows since an exobot colony has been built in the same system.
Is it a bug or did I miss something ?

That's either a bug or you've missed something. Did you already have an exobot colony there? In which case they could have built the base, you don't need a shipyard to build base hulls, that's part of the point of them, beyond that no clue.

There a several planets in this system :
- Babel alpha I, inhabited by Chatos
- Babel alpha III populated by exobots
- Babel alpha II, uninhabited : it's this one I'm trying to colonize with Chatos. Exobots don't want to go there (not suitable)

The construction order has been given to Babel Alpha I, tha'ts why I expect the Colony Base to be filled with Chatos settlers, not exobots.
I'm sure I did not give the order to the exobots colony because I made the experience twice (just in case...).

Not so sure after all : the thrid attemps gave me a Chato Colony base as expected.
Hum... I'm going to investigate a little further. I'll tell you.
