This a new game with the 0.95.5 version of the GalCiv3.exe.
I started the game yesterday and immediately made a save. I then played the game for 117 turns before saving again and exiting. I resumed the game today and continued. I eventually found the minor race the Burran. A few turns later I found a second planet occupied by the Burran. This one turned out to be their capital. The first screen shot shows the map with a tool tip on the capital, and the second shows the other planet. The third one shows the trade screen with Khenpo Adar, the leader of the Burran (with the wrong name - Akari Malara, but that's another bug), and the fact that he has two planets. I saved the game at this point and quit.



I decided to see if I could find out when the Burran got two planets. I loaded the save at the start of the game, used the console and the FOW command to see that the Burran started the game with only their home planet. I then did the same with the save after 117 turns and was able to see the Burran already had two planets.
I then reloaded the initial save, used the console to start the Soak command and watched what happened. I did this many more times. The Burran began building colony ships anywhere from turn 60 to turn 170.


They usually made several and were trying to send them to the planet that they had settled when I found them in the real game. They couldn't make it through the pirates (I had them on abundant), and the colony ships kept getting destroyed. They eventually gave up. I never did see them actually colonize a planet, but they came close several times.
