The difference in basal area between a single species and twice this species is expected.
I wrote some code in dev/dev_issue1.R to show this :
I simulate a single species "Yggdrasil" and a second system with "Yggdrasil" and "Ents", the second being the same species with a different name.
The second simulation reach an higher BA because some intra specific competition goes and become an extra specific competition, which for this species impacts the recruitment lesser than intra specific competition.
Curve difference between green and blue is due to initial conditions random draw.
We can observe that the difference between equilibrium distribution is more present for low cells in the mesh.
