simple vs normal prospecting?

[Stealth]

What's the difference? I selected simple as it doesn't tell you the difference (from what I can tell) and it just seems that the whole map has the same value for each resource everywhere. Is that the only difference? Can you chane to normal somehow?

Simple prospecting is what you said it is. Every area has the same value.

If you turn normal prospecting on, then certain areas may yield no water, but plenty of stone, etc etc.

Easy prospecting makes it so that you can set up anywhere without needing to worry about resource placement. To change the setting, you need to import your current save game and tick or untick the prospecting box at the bottom.

Ok thanks, I wish it explained that before hand. Importing buildings is bugged so now people can walk through the walls of my shack...

Rebuilding your nav mesh would likely fix that. ctrl+shift+f11 should do the trick.

If you dont want to deal with prospecting you can eaisly mod the game to make all resources avalible everywhere. Or I can just give you the one I made.

I don't mind it too much actually. I found a good spot for iron and stone near a big city where guards can help me against bandits.
