I hope to see a "starting points" system where the characters are randomized and you can "buy" a better chance for good/reliable colonists by sacrificing some starting resources. As it stands, I have to force myself to not just reroll endlessly, and just focus on having a reasonably viable starting crew. I hope, at the least, that eventually character and biome selection will have a nice "random" option for people who want it.

This for me as well.  I'd love to see a points system for starting colonists (and maybe ways of saving up points during the game to be used on the next play through).

Currently, I aim for good traits & passions.  I don't worry too much about the skills themselves, since they'll grow over time if the colonists live long enough.
