What happened ? Please select from below
The interface blocked me to do some game action authorized by the rules
Detailed description
• Which was the game action you wanted to do?
On Turn #54, after settling a world and being prompted " Terraforming Project: You may discard Terraforming Project to place another (non-military, non-Alien) world at 0 cost" I attempted to settle a non-alien military world.
I have contact specialist (CS) in my tableau, therefore access to pay for military (PFM) ability.
The Alien Artifacts rulebook explicitly allows this ability to be used with PFM abilities with a specific callout about this; specifically stating against this ability "This can be used with a (non-Alien) pay for military power."• What do you try to do to trigger this game action?

*Another* Terraforming Project bug from me :) (boardgamearena.com/bug?id=38297)
Rulebook text found here: boardgamegeek.com/filepage/143764/rftg-alien-artifacts
Cut from my previous bug report was the text at the bottom of this section, explicitly allowing PFM as it wasn't relevant there...
"Discard to Place at 0 Cost
May, in addition to any
(or no) Settle action,
discard this card from
tableau to place a non-military world
([Non-Military world icon]) – except an Alien production or
windfall world ([Alien world icons) – at 0 cost.
This can be used with a (non-Alien)
pay for military ([Pay for military icon]) power"
Therefore expectation is CS would allow this world to be placed

It's still happening to me - I'm trying to settle rebel resistance using contact specialist and terraforming project. Although it recognized contact specialist ability, it is not allowing me to use terraforming project to pay the cost.
