I've searched extensively to try to find the answer to this question, but haven't found it, so here's my question:
I started a Conventional Start and selected the option to have all wormholes start with Gates in place. I played through a few years gametime before I finally had the Grav-Sensor technology I needed to spot the wormholes (I like building up from scratch). My Gravship found a wormhole but there was no Gate on it. Thinking this to maybe be a glitch, I ran time till I found a 2nd wormhole, but this one had no gate either.
So my question is actually multi-part:
Is the "All wormholes have Gates" setup option not possible with Conventional starts?
OR Was this a glitch of some kind?
OR Was there a starter tech other than Grav Sensors that I needed to research to allow me to see the gates on the wormholes? (There was no red box indicating any gate on either of those wormholes, and my ships couldn't pass through).
OR Was it something that was none of the above that was preventing this option from working?
I appreciate any help anyone can give me on this, as I really love building up from scratch with Conventional starts, but for some reason really hate having to mess with jump engines or building jumpgates manually. Thanks in advance.
