Yor population Bug?

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hello, galciv players. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but I just tried out the Yor with the new beta patch and when I was playing as them, I managed to colonize four planets, but there was virtually no population on the last two? My first two colonies expand their population just fine, however, so I don't know if I'm missing something(this is the first Galactic Civ that I've ever played). The last two colonies say they have no population after colonizing and every build time is infinite. Anyone else have this problem?

The yor have a completely different mehanic for population growth then the other races. 

you need to actually build thier population there should be a project in your build list to that effect.

im betting your home planet has fairly low population atm as well

My home population was 12 billion(or million, not sure :P), second planet is the same, which probably isn't high, it was toward the beginning of the game. I did use assembly on all the planets, but it did not work on those two. Do you have to build up your home colony first before creating pop on other planets?

I have zero population growth and I have researched every Yor population tech and build all population buildings. It has to be a bug

Scratch this, it is no bug I finally realized the Yor have to be on Assembly in the build queue to grow in population. They have to choose between buildings and population, it seems.

Perhaps I was doing it wrong :P, haha. Thanks for the input, guys, I'll try again and see what happens.

The problem might be this: the formula for assembly is essentially this: manufacturing/10 (rounded up) * .2. If your manufacturing is set to 0 you get 0 population growth. as long as you have even 1% manufacturing though, you should get .2/turn.

Alright, well I started another game, and I don't seem to have the problem that I had before. Appreciate the help, guys :).
