We do, and we didn't expand to that system. My guess is its a faction that was transplanted from its home from a previous expansion, and therefore could have come from anywhere.

Yep, sounds like you're on the right track. Also confirms that the expansion definitely happened. Good luck in your search. Hopefully the game of faction musical chairs is only a few systems deep.
to add to it, the registering of fines is very buggy. you can get a fine in the hud, without registering it left hand panel - and you can have it registered left hand, and the next time you log in, the value shown is lowered (without any action...).
pretty much.
revised my search, instead of looking around my system, I went to the origin system of our new faction, and looked around where the 30ly expansion bubble of both systems might intersect.. I found our expansion system 23.6 ly away, and already firmly in the grip of the Diamond Frogs. *sigh* Better luck next time.

Keep at it, you might have kiss a few frogs before you find a real diamond.

Does anyone know of anything that might stop Expansion from becoming PENDING ... not active but PENDING?
Conflict pending, active, or recovering in any system will prevent expansion pending. Economic states don't prevent it from going pending, just active.
Assuming the faction controls the system then the following will block expansion from going pending:
1) Conflict states (pending, active, or recovering) in any other system.
2) Being below 75% influence.
That's all, quite simple

Thanks. Its my election thats preventing it then in another system. Didn't think it would stop it from going pending but alas lol.
Cheers.
Hopefully that addresses the issue of one planet, one station orbiting it and no CZ's too.
No CZs spawned in that case. So no. :|
patch isn't up yet ;-)
I am playing 2.09.

(Sorry for my english)
I do not agree with the 2) point.
Some days ago, we had an expansion at 70 % when it trigger (after the countodown period).
I think when an expansion goes into pending state, it will be trigger whatever happens.

Quite correct, but my question was what was stopping it from going pending, and being below 75% will which is what his 2nd statement says. As you say, once pending you can drop below 75% and it will still trigger.
Its all in the english
The expansion went into "pending" when your faction was at 75%. If your influence drops, it seems that the expansion goes ahead anyway.(Sorry for my english)

I have a short question for the BGS experts: I came across a CZ today where an independent Faction was using the Fed Ships, All the 3 dropships and the Corvette. Now I'm wondering if this is something that can happen or is it a bug that I should report?
