So far i found no way to use this, it is always grayed out

i have the extreme terraformation support modules equipped, i can terraform planets.

if i am in a system that i own, i get the red text message "The planet is already colonized"

if i vacate the system, i dont get a red text message, but the button is still grayed out.

if i colonize one of the planets again, i get the "The planet is already colonized" message, even though there are depleted planets that are not colonized.

is there any documentation anywhere for how the action is supposed to work? the only thing i have to go on is the button text saying"turn a depleted planet into a viable one"

Basically if you want to terraform a planet with a behemoth, this should be a non-colonized planet, either from a neutral system or from one of your systems (but you didn't colonized THIS planet).

If you want to terraform a planet that you have already colonized, then you have to do it by the usual way from system view, queuing the terraform option.

Same for reducin anomalies and anyt behemoth related options.

You should have in mind that to terraform a planet, reduce anomaly, etc... you must have researched the necessary tech.

@Mendora XII, if in your screenshot you're trying to terraform Aquarius, as I can see all planets are already colonized in that system, so you can't perform any behemoth options on them, You'll have to do it the usual way. The tooltip should tell you that you can't because planet is already colonized and not that you didn't researched the necessary tech. Possibly a wrong tooltip that you should report in bugs section.

I don't really see a point in terraforming/restoring depleted planets/reducing anomalies of planets which don't belong to me. I finally thought that I will be able to restore depleted planets as a craver (which would be beautiful behemoth synergy), but that's not the case. Why is it locked to neutral planets? Can anyone enlighten me?

You can restore depleted planets. AFAIK there's no button for it. If you put your behemoth over a system with depleted planets it restores it passively (have to admit I only did it on systems I own, so not sure if another faction owns it)

The problem is with destroyed planets or when you try to terraform.

Is the Behemoth Climatology II tech needed for it? I thought it just gives the production as in the tooltip but the actual function should be from the beginning. Haven't researched it yet, so I've been quite frustrated when trying different Behemoths but haven't seen the option to restore the planet.

I tested it and it doesn't work passively, you have to have Behemoth Climatology II tech researched and appropriate module installed. Besides it doesn't work on colonized planets. It completely makes no sense, why would anyone abandon the system just to refill the planets and build and populate everything again? That's ridiculous, same with terraforming and reducing anomalies, useless additions (you could 'prepare' the system for colonizing though but how much sense is in that :D). The most reasonable would be to allow Behemoths to do these on colonized planets, but set the number of turns dependent on the population of the planet.

It's useful if someone wipes your system to the Ground.

There are three different actions:

- Restore: active. For DESTROYED, not depleted planets. It is active. Useful for pknets victims of obliterators or crackers.

- Terraform: active. Only wirks on neutral planets.

- Rejuvenate. passive. Restores planets depleted by cravers.

Each one requires a tech (some are in same one). Sorry if confounding some name and made typos. Actually on holydays with no acces to my computers. But have in mind the three different actions in case i brought confusion with my previous post.
