Went to invite my first group of colonist to a colony. I went in and picked my traits and hit launch...I never got the timer. Then when I tried send another batch I got the "no more colonists until 10 sols after the first batch arrives"...they never arrived :-(

Yes, posted on bug forum.

I haven't played the game yet, but just to confirm, you said you picked the traits? So when I invite colonists over, can I pick ALL of their traits, including their personalities? Can you also pick which genders arrive? I want a colony full of women with a single guy.

You can pick which traits you'll allow to come and which you won't, but can't get any more specific than that.

Actually, you can! It's not just not particularly clear.

Once you've picked the traits you want to allow, if you hit the "Review" button, you'll see a list of all the applicants who meet your criteria, and you can manually select the colonists you want from that list. You can't pick exactly the traits you want, because you're still limited to the applicant pool. But it still gives you more control than letting the game automatically fill the rocket from your criteria.

Good to know!
