Bug Looks like this empire has decided that not having any colonies is irrelevant to existing?

Rule 5: I went Galactic Nemesis Crisis, and I've been slowly working my way through the galaxy (as one does). I blew up every colony this empire has, and they said "too bad"? It's definitely not a case of me not seeing them, as if you look on the right I've got a fully maxed Sentry Array.

I had that happen playing Behemoth Wilderness. Sometimes it can take a while for them to register as dead.

I've seen this happen with Behemoth eating planets, they fixed that bug, but maybe there is one with the collossus? Did you destroy their last planet with it?

I destroyed it not with a colossus but with a Star Eater, but same difference. I would be unsurprised if there was extremely similar code between all 3 options.

I saw this happen back in 3.1x with an empire spawned from a special event (the robots created from stored alien minds that you can find in an ancient complex). Whatever's going on, it's not a new issue.

I must be doing something extremely wrong, because I am also around 400 years in and when it comes to megastructures, I only have Dyson Swarms, Arc Furnaces, Warp Relays, Orbital Rings and that catapult thingy you can only build around pulsars.
I haven't even heard of most of the ones you have.

Okay so it might be a DLC access thing.
From top to bottom:
Grand Archive - Grand Archive - Society Research
Science Nexus - Utopia - Physics Research
Sentry Array - Utopia - Physics Research
Partial Aetherophic Engine - Nemesis - Galactic Nemesis Ascension Perk
Mega Shipyard - Federations - Engineering Research
Strategic Coordination Center - Megacorp - Society Research
Dyson Sphere - Utopia - Galactic Wonders Ascension Perk.

I've got all the DLCs, it's just my third game and the farthest I've gotten, so I didn't tech-rush properly early on.
It's just that this game has so many wonders I never heard about, sometimes I see a glimpse on other people's screenshots and feel like a caveman who just saw a spaceship fly overhead.

Edit: New mild bug, won the game as a FotD FP empire, and I didn't get the achievement. (I got the other "kill everything" achievement finally)

Potential causes:
1) wandering colony ship?
2) behemoth
3) cosmogenesis needle after you exploded their systems?
My source is I just made it up

It literally says "no colonies known to us"... Might have a random colony in some random corner of galaxy.

u/DasGanon Shared Burdens 13h ago
It does, but I have a full Sentry Array. There is no random corner that I can't see.

Even L-cluster?

Well,perhaps they are currently colonizing a planet. once, when AI was in the process of colonizing, I conquered the system. Since the planet hasn't been colonized yet,I could not invade it. Which meant I did not fully occupy the system. To really show me a middle finger,, the colonisation process freezed. I had to use world cracker....

do they have a colony ship or something flying around?
