Like I know they do happen...and I meet the pre-requisites, but it's also extremely rare too. I know there's an event involving treasure around your colony, and it'll trigger 2 free criminals, which are great early game because you can quickly have 2 fresh farmers or fishermen training them with the local natives.
But it's soooo rare. I've gotten it to trigger before. I had about 15 treasures in my first colony, and I moved em all out 50x trying to get it to trigger, iirc it did trigger once but I didn't save it.
I went through the game files and it says it just needs >1 treasures within my colony borders, but it doesn't say how often the event will actually trigger, best I can tell it might be 1 in 100 event.
