Hi, for some reason after starting new map ores arent revealed. Can anyone tell me why? Reveal option is checked in settings.

It seems to be working just fine here: I will need more details from you. Please also double check that option is enabled in save - it is saved in game state.

Its checked for sure, but i dont know what do you mean by enabled in save?

It needs to be checked while you are in game and go to settings menu there - not from main menu.

It is then.

Maybe one of my mods is causing it?

Yeah, i've disabled every mod except RSO and i can see ores, now ill try to figure out which mod is problem

OKAY, Figured it out. The problem is "Starting area size" if i set it higher than default ores generally dont spawn near, I guess your resource spawn system depends on bitters or start area cant contain additional resources?

Then it's working as intended.
Changing starting area size moves everything further out - both ores and biters. You have starting area ore set and need to travel further for others. At max starting size multiplier from map settings first ores were more then 1k tiles from start.
