g Heavy oil visibility

Can you make the heavy oil wells easier to see on the map? Maybe also have some right near your landing point, like Vulcanus does with sulfuric acid.

When I first landed, I thought I had to figure out how to make oil from sand. (Didn't help that I got confused by some Moshine products, but that part isn't your fault.) Then I realized there were heavy oil wells, but even when I was looking for them, the color was so close to the sand color, or the color of the crash remnant pods, that they were barely visible on the map. Once I know what to look for it's clearer, but they just look like slightly bigger blotches on the sand at first.

I know you're limited by the colour of the heavy oil in game, and you want that to be the main colour, but a pop of some colour that isn't reddish-brown would help a lot. Maybe a rainbow sheen on the edges, or make the steam rising off them more colourful somehow?

(Cool planet, though - it's the first custom one I've tried, and it does feel about as well-designed as the canonical planets, which is impressive for a mod. Thank you for your work on it.)
