I've built a PDC w/2 sections. I have transported 2 sections to a colony. I have transported an engineering brigade to the colony. The colony has the needed minerals. The assembly is in the queue on the industry screen. It shows a finish date. Yet the assembly never starts; the finish date keeps advancing. This had been going on for maybe over a year and I just noticed. Where have I gone wrong?

IIRC, There is a known bug where engineering brigades on a colony without factories don't contribute anything to production (I think Kurt saw this first). I'd simply wait the required time then SM-mode the PDC in place (using "instant OOB").

So that's the problem. Thanks.
Now another question: how do I make something from fastOOB appear on a planet besides Earth?
-
You fast OOB it at your homeworld and then move it as Starmaster.

Or position a TG at the target location and fast OOB into that TG.

I don't seem to be able to figure out how to do either of these things. Help please. I'm using 4.9-something if it matters.

Enter SM mode and just give yourself a construction factory on the colony, that should force Aurora to take into consideration the engineers and the PDC will start building.
But, as always, be careful with what you change using SM mode - you can revert back, unless you save the database to a separate folder.
