Do anomalies repopulate in TA?

from GalCiv2 Forums

I just spotted a forum post where someone said that anomalies repopulate/regenerate in "the expansions" and the other commenters didn't disagree.

Is this true?  Now, I just yesterday started playing TA (depite the fact that I preordered it before release!) and it's been a while since I played DA, but I don't recall seeing any anomalies repopulate ever.   I've been wishing for anomies to pop up over time since the original DL, so that'd be great if it was true.  It'd be nice to have a reason to build the "galactic guide book".

Anomalies do repop in TotA 

I've yet to see it as of being near the end of the first campaign map.  Maybe this is disabled in the campaign?

How often do anomalies repop?  Semi-regularly?  Randomly?  Only if some very rare event occurs?

When the anomalies repop, is it a whole bunch at once, or just one at a time?

Thanks!

Anomalies start respawning with late DA (1.7+, don't remember exact version number).

It's pseudo-random, and you probably won't notice it in the campaign. Most things in the campaign are fixed-it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if anomalies were as well (within the campaign).

If you have enough survey ships out and running about, you can still run out of them (temporarily), at which point you'll notice the slow spawn rate, but it's not terribly slow, either.

They're not one at a time, IME, but they don't tend to spawn in large groups, either.

Cool.  That explains it then, thanks!
