Cannot colonize Ice worlds?
Greetings all from another MOO3 refugee!
Can anyone help me understand why I am unable to colonize Ice planets? I must be missing something. I have the Colonize Ice Planet tech I got from a surrendered foe, but I am unable to actually colonize them. They even appear with a green star, but it just says "cannot colonize ice planets"
Any ideas? Thanks!!

Re: Cannot colonize Ice worlds?
i can think of two possibilities.
1. do you have can only colonize home world type activated in settings. (when you started game)
2. do you have an ice planet colonization component on the ship or one of the other types.

I think you have built a colonny ship with a rock planet colony component instead of a ice planet colony component. Have a look at the design screen...

I still make this mistake even after playing SEIV for 2 years ! Sometimes I think I would be better off with Design minister ON
No more engineless ships

Re: Cannot colonize Ice worlds?
Two others to watch out for:
Sending Colony Ships with no population on board
Building ships with no engines.
