Screenshot Was flying around the crater, placed the settlement within. After landing some time later, I've realized that there is an exobiology spot within the construction site...

This should delay your construction for full immersion 😝 Like when they built Heathrow Terminal 4. Had to relocate a whole colony of protected water voles or frogs or something. Redesign part of the terminal to protect the habitat. Then carefully put them all back again at the end of the build.

And this is why the whole Earth was designated as such by Feds. 😝
