I've just recently begun playing this game, and I am noticing something I find odd. With exactly the same game settings and faction (testing right now with the normal map of planet, using current settings, and picking the gaians several times over) I sometimes get 1 colony pod to start with, and other times I get two. I have the setting that allows you to select your base location rather than having it auto-dropped on. I've also used the scenario editor to look around and the same situation applies to other factions; a lot of the time different ones will start with different numbers of colony pods, but it doesn't seem to be connected to which faction it is.
Is this a bug, or an intentional feature? And if it's intentional...what determines whether you get one or two pods to start with? Having one less free pod to start with is a big downside, after all.
