    Hey all,

    Not entirely sure what the problem was, but the free colony ship i got from Culture wasn't able to colonize a planet for which i got the colonization tech later on. A newly build colony ship could settle that planet.

    Don't have a screenshot for it, but the planet was flagged "colonizable", even waited a turn, but no go.. Flew to another system and there it was unable to colonize the same type (swamp in this case) but it was capable of colonizing my ideal type (lava).

    Hope it helps!

    This may be related with the unique ability "Resilient Settlers", which allows colonizing worlds for which you do not have a tech for. However, you say that you had the colonization tech and that the world in question was colonizable, and that a newly built colony ship could colonize that world but the "bugged" colony ship could not.

    A save would be very important to have in this case so I could have a direct look at the problem. If you still have a save of that time with the "bugged" colony ship please could you upload it here? Thanks!

    Thanks for the save, that's always very helpful.

    Ok, the issue was not in the colony ship but on an issue on how the rogue planet system was being presented, which blocked the colonization of the planet. This is now fixed in the dev build.

    If you wish to get a fixed save where that rogue planet is colonized at that time let me know.

    Thanks!
