Will Genesis allow natural spawning of fauna? Right now we get random packs of fauna grouped together, which feels like a spawn point was placed and a specific fauna was spawned there.asked by Yelmurc

Heya, in Genesis creatures/minables/other resources are all distributed very differently to how they currently are. The new "Planetary Resource" system allows gameplay-relevant things to be spawned according to various distributions, whether that be geology, soil, seed, or more complex groupings of specific climate conditions or required species of plants nearby. There's broader controls to allow designers to control the density of groups, and how much of a resource is available on a given planet too. This will come online first for minables but shortly after for creatures I'd imagine. Thanks! - Will Hain, aka Dirt/Water Guy
