I like placement like this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/646453476573839382/893402645518229524/blueprint.png , with non-overlapping coverage of the deposit by miners.

Currently code doesn't accommodate for different layouts but I can refactor it if you'd make a pull request with a modified algorithm.
Also, what's the exact benefit of non-overlapping coverage?

The deposit takes longer to develop - it is necessary to build new outposts less often and disassemble the exhausted ones.

Took a while with the refactor but with update 1.1 I added an option for a sparse layout

I love this option, it's so smooth :) only thing I'd like would be a setup like the simple one but with substations instead of medium poles and then singularity beacons with speed modules. Maybe even add the possibility to add a Blueprint (F.A.R.L has something like that)
