Summary / Title

Outpost Converts to Colony Instantly

Description

I had previously cleared a Riftborn colony out of the Deka system a few turns before. There is a UE colony ship headed the Deka system Turn 112, and on the subsequent turn basically completes a colony with no outpost phase (with my ships in orbit no less).

Steps to Reproduce

1. End Turn 112 with the camera on Deka

2. Close the completed research and wonder achievement alerts quickly

3. Watch the UE (red) colony ship make it to Deka and "create" a colony

Reproducibility

5/5

Expected Behavior

There should be an outpost phase before a colony is actually built. Also, if I'm not mistaken, having neutral or enemy ships in defense orbit around the system should prevent colonization from even happening in the first place.

Version

0.3.6 S2 ALPHA-Public

Notes

1) This actually happened twice in this game, with Deka and with Taurus before, with same empire (I never caught the Taurus one though, which was frustrating -- I had diligently been erasing any outposts in that part of space for quite some time). Could it have something to do with the system being close to the fringe of an AI empire's influence border?

2) Any time you quit or reload this save, you'll hear the sound of a ship warping (or so I presume). It seems to be related to having the Riftborn in your game; I noticed it happening when I played a game as the faction. What is causing that sound to play?
