It took a while to notice it, but I'm playing with a Riftborn custom race that has Ship Bound as it's trait.

Because Ship Bound immediately takes over a solar system, I don't think they count as colonies; The Riftborn quest to recruit The Virus hero requires that you colonize a planet and get the Science production up to 60. I've done that already, but the quest still isn't finished.

Reproducability is iffy cause that sort of thing takes a while.

Hey there,

Mmh it's weird, Arks anchored on systems are considered as ColonizedStarSystem... Maybe the quest has a weird prerequisite.

You should post this issue in the pinned, dedicated Quest thread of this forum so a member of the quest team will see it :)

Thank your for your report, however!

Cheers,
