I sent a colonisation ship (using the path manager) to colonise your planet at Mandgolore Alpha. I don't know what will happen when it arrives, but the command was accepted. It may fail, but either way, it should give an error and not accept a command to colonise owned planets.
EDIT: The colonisation failed, that is ok. But maybe checking if a planet is already owned before sending a ship would be best.
Also, it is possible to send 2 or more colonisation ships to the same planet. Thats annoying, because you can waste time sending another ship, thet could be used for another planet. Maybe it would be good to check if you already have a ship sent to colonise the planet first.

It seems my fleet of Drones colonised a planet (Mandgolore Delta).
The fleet did not have any colonisation ships in it, but, I did have an idle colonisation ship orbiting Mandgolore...
So, it is possible that because the fleet had no colony ships, that it used another ship that was in the star. Not sure, I will try again on an empty star.
EDIT: Ok, that failed, but the first time it did seem to work. I think maybe it used an availiable colonisation ship instead, that was not part of the fleet I sent. I guess that is still a bug though, the fact that a fleet without col ships can be sent on colonise mission.

Yes we can check if a colonization ship is in route already, but what we should do then? Return an error and don't alow sending another one?

I think you had some colonization in it. I have changed some probes to colonization ships. It was juas showing you it as a probe.
