I'm not sure how this is supposed to work...

I would like to keep my Teekan colony (a la derelict ship discovery) purely Teekan - but I'm not sure how to go about doing this.

To achieve this set the Population Policy for that colony to:
- Same Family: Do Not Accept
- All Other Races: Do Not Accept

"Same Family" means all *other* races in your race family (not including your own race)

But still, we can't decide precisely what policy should be used for specific race. It's not enough to just set this for 'Race family'.

New to the forum, but I do second this "more control on population", was the first thing I checked when I got the game. Indeed I started a game with the lava loving lizard and quicly ended up with a full collony of "dolphin", whith the major empire at my border being the dolphins too. Now I got Guizean in one of my colonies for a reason I do not now and I can not do anything. This is an ocean planet founded by the dolphins (sorry at work I do not remeber the names...) so I can not "clear off" the guizean without harming the dolphins, hurting half of my colonies (stong dolphin population) and most probably ending at war with by nice and friendly neighbour!!!

The idea that multicultural empire should be harder to protect against spies is a very good one too!!!

Last time I looked their racial feature target was to "share a meal with the aliens" with them on the other side of the plate.

That line still gives me the creeps.

I definetly need to play a game with Gizurrean hivemind at some point. Just for RPings sake.
