So I am trying to colonize Mars. I took a colony ship and gave it orders to pick up colonists on Earth and dump them on Mars, and that worked. I then wanted to build infrastructure, so I selected that, and dedicated 100% of industry to it. . . and I noticed I need 2 duranium(?). (2 of something that began with "D", in any event. ) I managed to bring a pile of that from Earth in a freighter. However, the "time to complete" continued to be "NA". I couldn't find any way to get my lazy-ass colonists to start building, and, meanwhile, they kept dying.
I'd say "What am I doing wrong?", but I think the question is more "What 47 things am I doing wrong?"
(I've been playing SE5 for a bit when I discovered Aurora. . . SE5 is like Candyland compared to this. . . )
I'm also getting a lot of bugs/crashes/error messages, which I did not screenshot/write down. I will do that and file them in the appropriate place.
