Mission restart double-ups enemy count

Has anyone noticed if you restart a mission that the game double ups it enemy count? i ballsed up Mission 6 and went back and started again. This time there were two Aliens where previously there was just one, this was most obvious with the sleepers. Anyone come across this before? Feels like its penalising me for going back and having another go.

game flat out tells you this every time it happens

Enemy patrols and sleeper locations are not set on every level, they're randomised on every deployment. It might be a bug. I can only suggest validating game files, or reinstalling, and then restarting your mission. Or load up an earlier save, before you embarked on that mission.

Since you restarted your mission, and I'm assuming no time was spent, the Infestation level should have been the same. It might be a bug.

??? Don't you have to pass a day before doing another deployment after you extract your team?

Yes, only 1 deployment per day. Never mind, I didn't read the OP properly. When they said restart I assumed they reloaded a save, but they redeployed instead, thereby passing time,
