Pre-FTL-Species spawned on a destroyed ringworld???

[$h@tty]

In my new run in this new version plus the Paragon DLC, i found a pre-FTL species on a destroyed ringworld 4 Systems away from my Homesystem. One segment of the ringworld is intact, where this species resides, the other segments are destroyed. However, somehow it doesn't make sense that a pre-FTL species has evolved on a segment of a ring world. Is this a bug or is it intentional in connection with the new storypack from 1-2 months ago?

By the way i found other 2-3 destroyed megastructures very close to my Homesystem. 3-4 jumps away. Idk if this is my best Stellaris start ever or just a buggy start^^.

It's intentional. Why wouldn't it make sense? How did YOUR species do it when you select that origin?

Pre-FTL-Species spawned on a destroyed ringworld was a thing even before this patch

Why not? Assuming that the ringworld have been abandoned for a sufficient amount of time intelligent life can theoretically evolve anywhere that supports said life. If the ringworld has a working eco system on one of those gigantic sections, even in its overall destroyed state, then it sounds feasible that anything could evolve there that could evolve on a world like earth.

That said, it might also be something like animals leftover from a alien zoo (like a society of chimpanzees evolving from animals left behind), what is left from the fallen civilisation that built the thing (that lost all their knowledge over a long dark period), what was left behind from a laboratory or whatever where whoever built the ring tried to uplift a species, etc.

Pre-FTLs on ringworlds has been a thing for a while.

You guys may not be wrong, but I forgot to mention that this pre-FTL species was already in the atomic age. That destroyed my immersion. If it was a stone age people then it would have been ok for me i think.

Again... why? Civilizations develop. Atomic age civs were stone age civs at some point.
