Garbage Pile Upgrade

Ive been playing the war server lately and find that the garbage piles there tend to be over pulled to almost extinction. With the expected influx of new players the garbage pile conservation problem will become an even bigger issue. When people overpull or terraform them, the resources in garbage piles are non renewable and are gone forever. Garbage piles are the lifeline of Xsyon. Without them crafting anything becomes a problem. Please make them renewable like grass. Let them grow back over time so they will never be gone forever.

The original plan was to have new piles appear where players discard their junk. That was too complicated when originally implemented but a modified system could work now.

I'll keep my eye on the situation. What you suggest would be an easy 'fix' if piles do become scarce.

Scrap tiles could be changed to resource tiles like granite/flint/quartz so that you can't pull them into extinction too.
Instead of going poof you can give the player a message like "you unable to find any useful resources of that type."

Similar to what you have today with branches, twigs & seeds.

I agree with this. I go on trips often and for some reason here of late people are pulling on the piles. Massive dirt patches now reside in those locations. I think another problem starting to pop up is the buy to play. With this type of system we now support more players and people are begging to settle piles more often, then level the pile for the settlement.

I also think garbage piles should be unsettleable and unterraformable. I know some tribes have existed on garbage piles for a long time and they should be grandfathered but new settlement on garbage piles should be not allowed because it deprives the rest of the players from access especially if the garbage pile is fenced in.
