Couldn't Colonize a planet.

March 28, 2014 11:18:08 PM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

First off I have to say you guys did a great job so far, can't wait till its done. During my first play through the only problem I had was for some reason I wasn't able to colonize this one planet even though it says it is habitable. I tried with multiple colony ships but still wasn't able too. 

 

Here is a picture. Its the planet on the bottom.Colony

I had the same issue.

Also the AI attempted to colonize the world, but the ship just parked one move short.

Same problem here, the AI just waited outside the planet until I destroyed them.

Encountered that problem as well. It was kind of funny, seeing my terran colony ship, an iridium colony ship, and an altarian colony ship all parked next to it trying to colonize.

Try loading an autosave when this happens (either with colony ships or transports). Every time I've encountered the problem and loaded the last autosave, I've been able to colonize.

I'l have to try that next time. I had a class 18 and a class 11 ones that didn't allow me or the AI to be colonized for no apparent reason.
