I don't see a good way to handle this that makes sense in general.

For one -- if I'm the sidekick, and I want to be on planet B, then I don't want you moving the planet we start on without my permission. This may be my way of arguing for a different starting position with you.

Secondly -- if there are more than just two players, and I'm the sidekick, then I want to choose whose planet to be on.

I can see how it's desirable in some senses, and if you're setting up a sidekick when another player is not present, then it's annoying to have to go into the lobby and select the sidekick faction from that tab to go place it on the same planet as you. But setup of a sidekick faction when you don't have another player is a pretty edge case (the necromancer empire is the expected case for when you're playing by yourself).
