I hit a strange interaction between mods I suspect is best fixed in this mod?
I started a playthrough using this mod, but then later wanted to install a mod to change Nauvis map settings.
Unfortunately, I think the Nauvis surface is already created even if there are no chunks generated, so a naive approach to changing map generation settings doesn't work for Nauvis (in the way it seems to work with other planets).
I suspect there is a relatively simple fix: I think its possible to reset Nauvis map settings when new mods are installed if no terrain has been generated, so its map generation is more consistent with other planets?
I've tested this patch and think it works, if it helps!

(btw -- huge ♥ for this mod, it worked great!)
