In the book it states that the bugs stop exploring at closed warp points whilst they build up their populations, so why hadn't they found the already found the Anderson 1-Prox. Centauris warp point and made use of it before now?

completed the inter series, hence the question.

Given the bugs mapped warp nexus they should have found the open point in Anderson 1 at a much earlier point; especially given the population densities of the other home hive systems, and the fact that they had been in ocupation of Hannah for generations.

But the bugs say they don't explore the warp points of a daughter system until they fill up a planet and are ready to make a new colony.

if you read all of the bug war series you will find a small notation of a closed warp point they explored and sent a small task force through to subjugate the native species there when the war was going badly for them. once they did this they destroyed all records of that point in the hopes of the colony not being discovered before they had built their strength back up. However i wonder if they will be found before that happens in a book like the actual starfire game series did.

If that was the case, the bugs wouldn't have controlled the space they did.

We will never know as no further books in this series will be written, but see the speculation thread for other possibile continuations.

Uh where do you get that there is no more books forthcoming in this series? I have not seen anything to indicate this.
