Summary0019154: Boarine population stuck after event
DescriptionAfter the planet event "Biological Weapons Test Gone Wrong" the boarines entered a period of 14+ years with no population change. Planet details shows Total population 36m, Equilibrim Pop 106m, 36m civilians, 0 ground soldiers, 0 children (!!), 0m min born/month 0m max born/month, 0m min dying/month, 0m max dying/month.

RCI values are 211, 312, 309, 207. The 312 medical gives birth rate 2.25x, but that's apparently 2.25 times zero.

The regent's priority is Population, not surprisingly, but there's no headway being made because the Boarines are apparently all sterile and immortal, or perhaps immortal and uninterested.

The Regent changed during this time, but the priority stays at population, frustrating my attempts to get them into the federation. None of the other races feel like attacking them either, so the game was kind of stuck.

Eventually, after 14+ years, the situation auto-resolved and the RCI values resulted in the population rapidly filling the planet and the priority changed to galactic unity and I added them to the federation.

There were 3 local events for that planet in this game shown in the local event log, in years 3015, 3016 and 3017:

3015: Military Production Slow Down
3016: Biological Weapon Test Gone Wrong
3017: Plantlife is Surging

I don't understand the game's calendar, so I don't know if the Military Production Slow down was over with by the time the bad weapons test occurred or not. In save 0000019 the slowdown has 3 months left on it, the date is 64th XIX Ultra 2015, and the date in the log from later saves of the bad weapons test event is 21 II Proto 3016.

The pause in pop growth lasted until after year 3030. Sometime between save 30 and 31 it resolved and everything I'd been doing to
boost the pop suddenly took effect and when I wasn't looking they filled up the planet and switched over to Unity from Population emphasis.
I joined them to the federation and then made the save 0000031 after that.

(I had to cull some of the saves from the rar file to get it under the size limit, but all are available, just ask if you need any of the not-likely-to-be-intersting ones)
