Input on if bug please - or explain what happened to this noob

Player was skipped during Economic Phase due to inactivity. But a yellow counter appeared on a Barren planet that no longer has any colony once the bid winner was asked to pick first player. Whether the Yellow player performed Econ or not, what am I missing that allows a new counter on a non-colony planet?

Edit - And if I start the next turn - will the Green Ships on Draconia be trapped by this?

I think that economic orders from previous economic phase was used again in zombie mode (player not playing).
I will fix that.

Thank you. Really appreciate the work. Is good enough for me to just make sure I didn’t miss understand the rules.

Do kind of not like the whole volunteer part w/out knowing the context. BGA owes my sub solely to your work on this game. Likewise, after discovering it here I have spent serious $ buying hard copies that I hope to get on the table. Eventually.

So if you want to ever renegotiate that whole ‘volunteer’ thing, you just let us know.

Who is "YOU", who is "US", what do you mean ?

Sorry. Meant it as a vote of support for you. As a paying member I would gladly support something that compensated you for your fine work. But I do not know the context of your current agreement, if any. I may have misunderstood another thread.

Also, I do know that often devs choose to keep it as ‘volunteer’ or no pay work as a choice. The creator of Aurora4x chooses to not charge anything to avoid it becoming anything more than a fun hobby and I respect that.

Lastly, I did speak out of turn by assuming others felt as I. Arrogance of an American perhaps.

As I'm not a native Englis speaker, I do not always understand the meaning of the messages sent to me.
But in the end, what I thought I understood was the right one this time.
Thanks for you support.
