Is there a way to create a "Resource planet? What I mean is for example is a world made mostly of iron, with small pockets of other resources. My thought was to make a few of these and sprinkle them around. Then populate with a heavy dose of aliens, and drones to discourage forays onto them.
if you want alot of resources, then you can only have a few POI's in place. If you want a good balance, then it has to be half and half. The playfield (for me atleast) seems to only place the resources for me, and then fills in a few pois. i think there is a distance where resources will essentially take places on the map before poi's do, and poi's wont spawn too close to resources by that not allowing all the pois to spawn you tell the playfield to.
