What happens if there are two Positronixes in a game and they try to drop robots on the same world?

Similarly, what happens if there are two Missionaries and they try to convert population on the same world?

not sure about the robots but I can answer the missionary question.
There can only be one owner of converts. The odds of a missionary claiming the converts is equal to the number it created that turn. If 2 missionarys each created 5 converts, then the planet will have 10 converts, each missionary has a 50-50 chance to gaining all 10. Next turn Missionary X owns the 10 on the planet and is converting 5 more while Missionary Y is creating 5 more, so Y has a 25% chance of claiming all converts and Missionary X has 75% chance of claiming all the converts.
