I have been playing a custom game, I don't have it on peaceful, yet I have gotten to oil refining without any attacks. At what point can I expect attacks?

When you cut down all trees around your base and go out to kill them.

Trees absorb pollution which makes them aggressive, same as killing their brethren.

Ahh, that would explain it. I am surrounded by trees.

I wish there was some sort of way to see how much you are pissing them off.

Press alt key to see pollution on your minimap. Press M for full map preview.

Build a radar to uncover chunks in a large area over time. As soon as the pollution reaches them, they get angry.

Ahhh! Thank you!

I learn more everytime I play. The campaign should mention that at some point, as it seems right now to be the extended tutorial.

So the radar finally has a functionality even in Freeplay?

For a long time already

Good to know
