Kettling event chained didn´t work anymore

[Procyon]

Hello everyone, I own all expansions and play on the newest version of the game but since ca. 1/2 year the investigation of the ruined core ends without an conclusion and no kettling spawns...
i have tryed to force them spawning but this didn´t work eather......any ideas?

I have also reinstalled the game many times since then but the problem still exists

I had them spawn in a game in 2.6.2, so it is at least still possible. I was not near their planets in that game, so I don't know for sure what conditions caused them to spawn properly.

In another game I found the planets and colonized them (machine intelligence), and in that game investigating the planets didn't lead anywhere and they did not spawn. I think they only spawn as an empire if the planets remain empty, so if you have colonized their planets then maybe it is working as designed.

I'm not 100% sure how the event is supposed to unfold, though, so I can't say for sure if this is a bug or just how it works.

possibly thx...

from what i remember at least one of their systems has to remain unclaimed for them to spawn and they'll have negative opinion modifiers with any empire that owns some of the systems.

Ya I think if the systems are claimed the event doesn't start. If the event starts and then the systems are claimed before they become an empire, then when the next step tries to fire it fails and they are removed from the game. So it's a bit tricky to get it to work properly, but I have seen the event fully work as recently as 2.6.3 and create a ketling empire on the map.

ahhh ok.i have claimed their system as fast as possible maybe that was the problem
