Colonization ministers are not good at all. They will in rare cases send more than one colonizer to the same planet. It is a little more common for them to send the wrong colonization type --example rock colony to ice planet. I usually wait until I have all colonization types, and can put them all on a battleship, before I turn on the colonization minister.

But what I really don't like is when they send the wrong population -- say I have oxygen breathers and CO2 breathers, and send them to colonize the other's atmosphere, that's just terrible.

In an early SE4 classic patch the population minister was pretty good at moving population around to the correct atmosphere. Now the population minister and the colonization minister seem to have a big problem.
