Rules: a rule of the game has not been respected
Detailed description
• Which part of the rules was not respected by the BGA adaptation
After playing the Universal Pace Institute 6-cost development, my opponent appeared to accumulate too much Prestige. This is starting at move 42. I cannot see how my opponent continued to accumulate prestige - Federation Capital only accounted for 1 additional prestige when Rebel Alliance was played. In total, my opponent accumulated 9 prestige, whereas by my count it should have been 5 prestige. I gone through the game several times.• Is the rules violation visible on game replay? If yes, at which move number?

Move 42 to the end of the game.
13. Nov 2017 21:52 • galehar • Bug has been confirmed by developers:
There is a bug indeed. When player A has Improved Logistics and player B has Terraforming Engineers. Player A uses IL and gain a prestige from the second settle. Then they gain an additional prestige during the TE phase.
I'll look into it, thanks for the report. I might have to significantly refactor the settle phase.
Although in your game, it happened only twice, the other 7 prestige points were legitimate. 4 from cards, 1 from Universal Peace Institute consume power and 2 for placing Rebel Alliance (1 from Federation Capital and 1 from Rebel Council).

The Logistics/TE bug appeared in game #35219926 as well. My opponent gained prestige twice, both after playing his world and after me using TE.

May be a duplicate of bug #8978, weird interaction between improved logistics and Federation capital.

Same happened in game #50305899 with different world setup.

Hello- this might be related to this bug, but in game 146655801 I received an extra prestige on the last turn, also with improved logistics involved.
10. Feb 2021 19:55 • galehar • Bug has been confirmed by developers:
@McJarvis: in your case, I think the prestige count is accurate. You gained 1 for settling Devolved Uplift Race using Contact Specialist (because of Mediator), then 3 for Rebel 1 base: 1 for Mediator, 1 for Rebel Freedom Fighter, 1 for Imperium Capital.

Looks like it happened again on move 62 of table 200737708, making a note of it here. Improved Logistics player places Rebel Fuel Refinery for +2 prestige, and other player has Terraforming Engineers.

Table #239207858
Move ~95 I played alien burial site as my second world with improved logistics and I received an additional prestige point for placing it, when I should have only received one.

Another one here:
boardgamearena.com/3/raceforthegalaxy?table=241295985
He had Rebel Freedom home world and Improved Logistics. I had Terraforming Engineers.
He played Rebel Base as his second settle. Instead of 1 prestige bonus (putting him at a total of 2 with me at 3),, he got 3 prestige, lifting him to 4 prestige, passing my 3 and claiming the 5 point prestige reward bonus in this game.
Can anything be done to fix this game in progress?

It looks like it also happened here - boardgamearena.com/3/raceforthegalaxy?table=276631474 when placing Rebel Council (around move 49). Prestige was duplicated, card was placed w/ Improved Logistics in play and opponent had Terraforming Engineers

this also occurred twice for me in game: boardgamearena.com/table?table=369421832
I had improved logistics and opponent had Terraforming engineers. It only occurs on the second settle. On move 46 I gained 2 prestige points for Rebel Council before terraforming phase and on move 47 i gained 2 prestige points after terraforming phase.
This happened again at move 58/59 I gained 1 prestige from PGSC and another one on next turn.

Just had this also in my game: boardgamearena.com/gamereview?table=600212299
As above, I had Improved Logistics and opponent had Terraforming Engineers. I gained a prestige on the second settle action and somehow gained an extra prestige that I shouldn't have had. Didn't change the outcome on this game but it could have, given prestige was one of the goals.
