Hi, could you add\change colors (may be only outline) to be able to assign visually?

Well I still don't get it. I can easily differ between shallow and deep deposits looking at the max amount of it. But I didn't play the game much. Just 2 rounds in the past and 2 rounds this weekend. I even don't know the RC Driller, but as I can see on the description it's just a visual for this vehicle to know which deposit it can mine...

If it's just a visual to give the game a better look, then thanks for your work. I guess new players might really need that description in the game! Hope it might find the way into the game, but as a developer myself I fear this would be mostly on the last position on a todo list :(

@SkiRich you should add that the RC driller is special to the Space Race DLC for the Russian Sponsor. Might remove confusion. And add the tag of required DLC.

You are right, you missed something, its in the description.

I'm not sure whats the porpuse of this mod. As long as I don't have the tech I can see the difference and when I got the tech it's clearly to differ if it's shallow or deep because of the amount in it. The deep ones always got a lot more.

But maybe I'm missing something? Is it because of some other mods why someone would need this? Or did I miss some random breakthrough tech where I need to know it for sure instead of looking at the amount of the deposit?

Yes, core and deep deposits are different colors when the tech has not been researched. But once researched they are all the same color.

When a resource is listed as orange/red no digger can dig there until you research the necessary items at which point they are blue, and until this mod by @SkiRich there weren't any additional clear identifiers of what can be dug by the RC Diggers deep drill.

core actually display the difference in blue and orange/red colors. blue for shallow, orange/red being deep deposits.

so far i've not seen that change at all since release.

oke i didnt know that havent played with that RC just tought it was more of a deep VS underground thing. learn something new everyday
SkiRich  [author] 28 May, 2019 @ 1:42pm 
Core Deposits do not indicate they deep but they are deep. so its confusing. This mod clears that up.
BrowncoatTrekky 28 May, 2019 @ 1:00pm 
Not all those which are called deep however are diggable by the diggers with their deep drills. There is a level of depth which is not clearly identified by the vanilla game to assess what is and isn't diggable.

I'd put money on it, in two updates it will be in the base game.
BrowncoatTrekky 27 May, 2019 @ 7:25pm 
Assuming the devs have your ear; this should be added to next update. Thanks for this @SkiRich. Look forward to testing.
