Completing two precursor chains in one play. Anyone else?

[Wyrm]

In my current game I got the First League precursor-chain. But somewhere along the line I suddeny have the Cybrex Alpha system spawn in the middle of my territory. So, since that was already within in my space I sent a science ship there and got the completion for that entire chain, including the award.

And now I am completing the final task of the First League-chain as well, a ship en-route to their home system as I write this.

Anyone else stumble across something like this?

I guess what happened is that one of the AI-players got the Cybrex event-chain but couldn't complete it due to the home system spawning within the borders of a badly militant and hostile alien empire (that would be me)

I may have completed them twice once, don't know for sure. But I've definetly seen the precursor systems spawn without my doing it. So, they're coming from other empires that completed their chains.

I have been on the other side of something like this. I completed the final task for the Isaar quest line, and only had to scan the home system, but I guess the empire in which it got dropped beat me to the punch, as I found nothing while scanning it, and the quest line remains open.

I actually hope this is something that gets fixed in the future. While the system should become available for everyone, the anomaly should be only for the empire that finished the quest.

First one completed normally, but nothing happened when I entered the home system. I guess that means some AI beat me to it.

I then had a couple of anomalies spontanously appear in a system I shared with an uplifted protectorate of mine. Number of artifacts and the main mission are not tracked the event log. But the missions to investigate when completing the anormlies are. I am guessing that through some kind of bug I am getting access to my protectorates mission anormalies.

The other AI also get precursor chains, and having the Cybrex system spawn in your space meant another empire found the system and happened to roll a critical miss.

I found First League homeworld in AI space after completing Irassian chain, but it was already surveyed.

In 1.2 I actually managed to start two chains in one game but only finished one.

The thing about the AI is that it's so eager to scan new systems that they'll almost always get to the precursor planet first. It's so annoying; I wish they would have a delay on moving to a new system, like nobody else except you can jump to it for the first year of it being there.

When a precursor homeworld is spawned inside your border, it effectively gifts the award to you, as no one else can find the homeworld anomaly inside your border. Your vassals and federation mates may ruin the party, though.
