Population Disappearing?

[Suicide Junkie]

Well, a colony without population acts as domed, so what probably happens is:

-colony is created empty.
-cargo is transferred lump-sum.
-colony is no longer empty, and domes dissapear, but the colony ship is gone and the 207M people are lost.

I would suggest that you use the extra space beyond 500M people on the colony ship to carry a weapon platform or mines for the new colony to deploy as soon as it is created, since they will go into the planetary cargo space, and not be lost.
