What is the overlap in labor between roads, rivers and lava flows? Does the river work automatically get us roads and lava, or how does this work?
Sebastian Schroeder · Principal Technical Environment Artist, Planet Content Team

No, no, no. I assume the Planet Tech team will get into this a bit more in detail, but a lot of the things that make a river work will also make a lava [river]. Just like the name implies. And for roads, a lot of the tech that has been developed and is being developed for the rivers, like adjusting the terrain so it's flat and looks like a riverbed, can then be applied to make a road flat and drivable. But I assume, I don't know, I'm not on that team, there's lots to do to make the roads happen. And it's most likely going to be more collaboration between Planet Tech and the locations teams and not so much us. We're just there for awareness, but I don't expect us to do all that much work with roads or on roads, since it's mostly going to be connecting outposts and connecting cities. So basically based on what those teams will need.
