It's been a while since I have used RSO and now using it with Bob's Mods it seems like besides the starting area, no map that I generate, no matter the settings has resources at a believable distance. Yes I want to play with trains, but not ones that at every stop they have to travel forever to get to. I have tried messing with settings both in the game and in the configs and I can not find a balance in order to get bob's resources to spawn within a reasonable distance. Any suggestions as to setting changes or fixes would be much appreciated. Thank you

It's really hard to tell for me what do you mean by reasonable distance for example.
Maybe go to forums and post some examples?

From my experience I usually had all the needed resources within 2-3k tiles from start. Oil might be a bit scarce but it was buffed a bit recently.
