Missing Feature: Xeno-Colonization Through Migration Treaties?

[Jin_Cardassian]

I seem to recall somewhere in the dev diaries that in 2.2 we would be able to colonize with any species living in our empire or any empires with which we had migration treaties. Play an arctic species with only cold worlds, get a treaty, colonize your nearby desert world with the desert-dwelling primary species of a friend.

The former feature is definitely in, but I've played multiple games now where the migration colonization never shows up. Xeno species simply don't appear when I go to colonize. What gives? Is this a bug or was the feature removed?

You need to build a colony ship at a starbase and you will have the option to add any races you have migration treaties with. You can't do it from the colonize button on the planet screen. Hopefully that will be addressed in an update.
