Started working on a resource overhaul to fit my needs. Sharing it in case anyone else is insane.
The mining micro will reduce as the dunes grow with distance. Biters should still work, but water and cliff settings wont matter. Other resource settings that are automatic have been removed from the map gen.
Other than tree dunes and water slots, there shouldn't be anything on the map that needs to be moved away from blueprints. So all surface rocks are gone, no dead trees, etc
Water and trees could potentially have a bad start, but ill balance that as I get a chance to play.
