Playing in version 0.98d, there is a lone dwarg colony in the middle of no-where. Kicked its ass. I returned to the map and there was a little red square telling me where it is, but no text indicating what it is(was).

There were other Dwarg colonies in the same system which did show up and were named on the map

I've seen these before. I just assumed it was like Anarchist Gatherings, only with the stations spread out. I'd think the unnamed one belonged to one of the named colonies.

That seems to be likely, but the distance this poor sucker was away from the other colonies was quite considerable.

I didn't think this is a bug or anything at first, but looking into the Dwarg raiders code, I doubt this is an intended behaviour now.

I did a screencapture and uploaded on the unofficial forum here.

I hadn't encountered Dwarg colonies this distance apart until 0.98d.

I looked at your screenshot darksider; that was similar to my encounter. I should have scouted around a bit more thoroughly - maybe I could have brutalised another colony :twisted:
