A year later but how difficult would it be to have an option to customise the size??

Honestly it would be a massive increase in complexity, due to the need to add an interface for entering the customization, saving the customization, etc.

However you can totally go into the mods when you've subscribed and tweak the numbers in the code.

Can you possibly so a similar of for mining, salvaging and expeditions ?

Last time I looked, the code was significantly different for those functions compared to the code for the procure and trade commands. The mods I wrote override a single 1-line function used by the trade commands to load up the size of the area, and I just rewrote the 1-line to return a larger area.

The mining/etc expedition sizes are hardcoded inside the primary expedition function, rather than loaded from a smaller helper function. I would have had to rewrite/override the entire larger expedition function, which meant more dev work and upkeep.

That said, there have been a few updates now, so things might have changed. I have been thinking about checking this out again so I'll poke around in the code to see if they extracted the mining expedition size into a helper function similar to the trade expeditions. If the devs did that then it would be easy to make a mod.
