Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
So far they've not taken a single planet. Planets are marked as "Infested" but that doesn't seem to mean anything, as the native pops are still there.

I'm already a bunch of years in, but haven't completely eradicated them. You'll see they have 0 infested worlds, which is weird, because they were left to their own for about 20 years or so.

After they crashed their initial fleets into mine, they stopped doing anything, presumably because they didn't have fleets spawning like the wiki says they should.

Additionally I need to invade a planet twice. First time to capture it from the empire that currently owns it, second time to clear the dormant "infestation".

Steps to reproduce the issue.

Can confirm. Same thing is happening in my game.

On my end, they popped up and were cornered in 2-3 systems relatively quickly but the 6 or so infestors aren't doing anything, even though there's an uninhabited size 18 ocean world at their disposal. Been over 20 years so far and nothing happened.

Also somewhat related, got the wounded queen popup but no situation log update or special project was created in any of the galaxy's star systems.

I've encountered the same issue. It just looks like that they aren't purging any of the pops, so the worlds don't get infested. Additionally, the infestors also don't infest inhabitable but uninhabited planets, so they also don't get any reinforcements. Usually it just means that an Awakened Empire just crushes them and gains a bunch of score and wins the game as soon as they knock out the endgame.
