Dreadstone Outcrop shouldnt spawn if thers many structures very close by.

It makes any bases build before activating Rifts inhospitable if they have a fissure,

and its not like one could possibly guess that those fissures will get "upgraded" trough rifts

,

and a single Nightmare fissure while dangerous isnt really stoping anyone from basing near,

yet a single outcrop means your base will get smashed.

 

i suggest they work similar how  Rift portals work and try to spawn at fissures with little or no structures close.

I think it's better to just factor in nearby fissures. You're on day 6869, you should be able to do something simple like that

this world is old, for most of its existance outcrops did not exist, they only become a recent problem

[chaosmonkey]

Personally, I would dislike that sort of restriction because it prevents building near a place you want the outcrop to spawn. Perhaps in your case it could be reasonable to remove the fissure using a console command?

i considered it but im a bit oposed to cheaty things as such,

also the merm king looks really cool when hes sitting there with the nightmare fissure active, which is why i built there in first place.
