do friendlies proper appear in colonies?

[giannikampa]

I would call this a bug or a very rare random outcome:
I have 2 colonies(*), one is my main base and the other is just a mining/grazing site, half the year unabitated.
The game is going for very long now, like 30 years. Well, every friendlies incident happened to the same colony, even if the "under attack" was the oter one.
Some times no base is under attack, i assume that friendlies is just a possible incident, unrelated from others, don't know..
btw they only want to help me in a place.

I find this strange and i wanted to ask if this is an issue for other players too.

(*) no extreme biome

The friendlies thing seems a littled bugged at the moment - I have one save with two colonies that I don't think has ever had friendlies in either colony and I ran another single colony which consistently got friendlies even if there were no attack.

same there's never any threats when friendly's come to me.

I have run up a maximum of three colonies simultaneously and had the same issue with friendlies and caravans as well, arriving to trade to inhabited colonies.
