Resource Seams

Do ore deposits respawn or is it a finite thing now? I don't think it should be finite unless all the base blocks worked on a mobile tech. I'd love a slow respawn though, that way it forces exploration for a duration until the local resources near the base respawn.

They used to respawn, but im not sure anymore due to the recent updates.

I don't think so, Been playing in the same area on the same save for about 2 hours, trees have respawned but not rocks.

I've seen them respawn but it takes a very long time. It might also be based on proximity, in that they could possibly respawn faster if you're away from them. But I'm not sure.

Some of the more rarer materials can be mine with an autominer over their veins. If you break a rock and it has a coloured piece of ore under the it plop an autominer on that it`ll dig a bunch more ore so you dont have to explore THAT muhc

Hopefully this becomes a customizable setting. I personally hate respawning trees.

I would like respawning resources, but over a time variant. That way, when you exhaust local resources, you make mining trips, perhaps configure a cargo-convoy with the AI available, and gather what's beyond a few kilometres from the base, and in time local and far resources slowly come back. Because aside from the venture mobile delivery system and mobile refinery it gets extra tedious to move the base from point a to point b all while being shot to hell by rolling fortresses.
