Title: Prisoners not showing on planets
Post by: ollobrains on November 06, 2012, 10:28:02 PM
Ok have picked up about 1500 prisioners from enemy ship kills, moved my fleet to a nearby colony dropped off prisioners now i thought that they would show on the colony screens somewhere or even be able to used to settle other planets where i had no planet pop ( havent tried that yet) but on my established colony with 3 million  human citizens dropped the prisioners from the aliquea empire and they have just vanished any idea where i can find the info on the amount of POWs on the planet

I believe POWs are consumed immediately upon release on a colony by the intelligence services. Check the log for related entries.

According to this (http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php/topic,4835.msg50132.html#msg50132) post in the 6.0 change log, you should be able to unload POW's at one of your colonies and have them show up on the teams/academy tab.

ACtually both of u are right in a way.  Upon further investigation they do appear on my ships once captured under cargo and parasites.  Thats all well and good once offloaded into a colony they compleltey disappear from game so i guess holding them in youre colony as cargo or some data isnt happenng yet was looking forward to using them on colony worlds unsuited to humans where say i have infursturucture  where an alien race might be useful to colonize instead, guess steve hasnt programmed it that far along yet
