Awesome Quarries

Added the ability to build and manage additional natural quarry areas. Holding 3+ stones and right-clicking will convert the plot to rocky soil, and the plot will have a chance to naturally regenerate ore.

Awesome Quarries

✨ **Make the world of Dinkum full of infinite possibilities! ** ✨

🏔️ Module function

This mod allows you to create natural quarry areas that will automatically generate ore resources according to the game's original ore respawn rules!

🎯 How it works

The native ore regeneration mechanism in Dinkum games is based on the following checks:

• Whether the plot is empty (no buried treasure or objects above it)
• Whether the plot is in the "Coarse Soil" biome
• Whether the plot type is rocky ground
• Whether adjacent plots are also empty

This mod optimizes this system in the following ways:

🔧 Core improvements

• **💎 Optimize the logic of buried items**
• Prevent treasure items from regenerating on rocky soil
• No more digging for treasure to repair the quarry
• Only intercepts the rebirth mechanism and does not remove existing buried items

• **🌱Intelligent identification of biomes**
• Any rocky ground tile is considered a "rough soil" biome
• Hover over the map to see the biome type of the converted area
• NOTE: Insects from rough soil areas will also appear in your quarry

• **🛠️ Convenient conversion system**
• Right-click on an empty space with an item in hand to convert it to rocky ground
• Use stone by default (costs 3 stones per land)
• Item type and consumption quantity can be customized in the configuration file

⚠️ Notes

• 🛡️ **Safe and worry-free**: No changes will be made to the save unless you actively convert the parcels
• ⏱️ **KEEP AS IS**: Does not change ore respawn rate
• 🗑️ **KEEP ORIGINAL**: Existing buried items beneath the quarry will not be removed

🔄 Installation and Uninstallation

**Completely risk-free! ** After removing the module:

• Converting a plot's biome type will revert to the original terrain generation state
• The plot type will remain rocky until you do something else
• Buried treasures will respawn on these tiles

🐛 Troubleshooting

Enable verbose logging mode in the configuration file and in-game notifications will display rich debugging information to help you understand why a certain plot failed to convert. Usually the cause is buried treasure or an object on the plot (such as grass).
