Feature or Bug?

I vote bug...

I love finding the planets that are highly toxic, and have a rating of 1. Why? Because when I Terraform the hell out of them, they turn into planets with a PQ of 10+. The problem is that population on these planets does not grow...

I don’t mean that the population grows slowly. I mean that 100 turns after settlement, the planet still has the 2billion people I plunked down to settle the place. This might be a feature. The Devs could well be thinking dude, the planet is a radioactive S—t hole. Of course no one breeds there. My feeling is that if I’ve gone through all the work of researching the tech to settle there, and have Terraformed it, it’s now fit for human life—and that means breedin’...

So: is this a feature or a bug?

Perhaps its better not seeing what breedin will produce. You might end up creating a new species that will revolt on you

Ok. Here's the problem.
Those 1-2 PQ planets actually have 7+ Unterraformed spots, but when you do terraform them, they don't register.
Thus, the game reads the PQ as 1-2 and limits the population.

I just got one that had an eventual PQ of 56! I'm gonna have to ferry a lot of people to that planet...

If Yay54 is right (and I think he is), this sounds like a bug...

I believe this is a bug. I've seen it too.
