Ok, sorry nvm then. Can be closed if devs see that everything is correct.

I'm happy with bitters new pressure. For death world we surely need the similar time-factor challenges on Vulcanus and Fulgora

The lack was a bug in 2.1.7/2.1.8; what you see now is probably more similar to how it was in 1.1.


Sure, I saw this. Just quite strange that chunk that almost fully filled out with my buildings (solar power plant) is considered as potential expansion, but ...

After 2.1.9 update a lot of new potential biters expansion chunks has appeared. It is ok for me to fight biters, but those points look strange and one nest appeared really in point where I stay now. On this map there were no potential expansion chunks in 2.1.8 at all.

Sometimes I open factoriopedia directly from research selection menu for planning rates and also to be sure that game is paused, but this bug introduces some complications.

Yeah, just appeared a new red dot during the fighting with pentapods. Maybe it is due to attack of Strafers when flying Wriggler become ground one.

Updated to 2.0.11 and dots were still there.

If you build anything in the chunk then it refreshes the map, possibly also things like breaking trees or clearing cliffs would do it too. I'm guessing enemies were seen there at some point in the past and it's just old data that hasn't been reset ...

Gleba map is gradually covering by red dots (as for enemies or deconstruction planner) without real entities there. I'm not sure about every point, but probably I didn't build and deconstruct anything there. Maybe there was battles with pentapods in those places. Also I tried to collect all pentapod ...
