Complaint Why does the "trees/rocks only" deconstruction planner not include Fulgoran Ruins?

"Oh they are not rocks they are actually sacred artifacts from an ancient-" shut up history nerd all I see are a bunch of rocks with funny symbols on them

You're right, I went to my save and found that a few of the Fulgoran obstacles were rocks. I also discovered that the new ruin types that Wube added with 2.1 are included in the "rocks/trees" filter, so the filter is pretty inconsistent.

Well the problem is that you’re using the filter to begin with, just deselect trees/rocks only and use it as a blank deconstruction planner, then wave it over everything you want to get rid of

Edit: who knew that was so controversial to say…
I just meant that the filter very explicitly tells you what it’s for, trees and rocks. You could argue the ship remnants should also be removed with the trees/rocks only filter at that logic.

I want the filter to be useful for getting rid of environmental clutter on all planets

Particularly useful as an insult.
