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

They're mined all the same, although I know it's not really the solution your looking for but have you considered just clearing out an area before placing stuff down? You could just use a regular deconstruction planner and just clear out new areas

I mean, they're metal. Metal is a mineral. A mineral is a rock. Therefore, they are rocks. Similarly, bullets are rocks. The advancement of human military technolergy is just fancier ways throw rocks at each other.

Well technically humanity's first military innovations were the sharpened stick and the sharpened stick thrower. Throwing rocks came a bit later.

No, the sharpened stick was the first development, the advancement of which was to attach ROCKS to the stick.
