Default Ministers Working Without Permission?

Something strange happened in a PBW game v1.49. I loaded up my new turn, and noticed a lot of reports of sats being build. Looked like 20-30. I hve no memory of putting them down for build, but they were my designs. I figured the AI would have made his own. Then I noticed some ships seemed to be sitting in the middle of space with no orders. This being a telltale sign that the AI has been working, I was suspicious.

However, I knew I had not missed the previous turn. I went back to the log and there was my upload for the Last turn. I figured I was just going nuts.

I went back to the game and under research, there was all these strange technologies that I know I did not put down, chief among them Base Construction, which I never use and the AI seems to like a lot.

I checked the ministers, none of them are on, and I would never use them anyway. Has anyone seen anything like this in their own games? I am using 1.49 with no mods.

Thanks!

Edit:
I checked Intel projects, and there were a lot of worthless ones in the queue, ,also.

Edit2:
Alright, it must be because the host did not upgrade the game to 1.49 as stated. So I presume my turn file was rejected.

Still, though, why wouldn't the AI obsolete all my ships as usual?
