I'm currently trying to figure out the demo. I have followed the tutorial and built a colony in my home sector. But when I try to build a colony in another sector the population always shows 0/500M or similar, but the population is always 0.
I even tried an experiment. I built a colony ship, saved the game, then sent it to a planet in my home sector. TaDa! I get a population of 4M. Then I reload the game and send the same ship to another sector to colonize. Population - 0M!
What am I doing wrong? Why can I only colonize in my home sector?
Thanks for your help!
