No production on colonies

During an invasion I chose Information War which I didn't have the money to pay for, but that's okay the game let me spend it anyways, and put me -1000BC into the hole.

Several turns later of trying to rescue my economy, my colonies are all stuck on "NEVER" as being the completion date of all their projects and all we have is 1 shield on the planets.

What's your industrial capacity, and what's your spending on social and military production ( it's on the domestic stats screen)?

your problem is that you have more than 500bc debts. At that moment all your production is halted till you are again above -500bc....Try to trade techs for money to get fast out of the whole....

I know all of the things that you posted after it occured.

The economy was broken, so I had to go and change my economy to maximize my income to get back to positive BCs.

However, once I reached positive BCs, the planetary economies on every one of my worlds except my home world was busted. Only 1 shield available, unable to build anything, etc.

It may be something to do with how I set my sliders to recover from the debt, I will look into this and report back.
