      Any plans to make more randomness like resource nodes, random start locations, maybe some random world elements?

      Yeah, so this is definitely a great idea, especially for things like replayability.

      We've talked about it a lot.

      I think it just sounds like a great idea, but it seems like we're not interested in doing it anytime soon.

      The way that it would probably be is as a separate game mode, probably, so it's like a harder mode.

      Keep in mind, folks, that there are a lot of people who are not hardcore players of the game.

      Many folks watching this video maybe are more hardcore.

      or asking questions, you're more invested in community and the game itself.

      So we can't focus just on that.

      So it may be like, make that the only game mode is what I'm saying, randomness.

      So it may be that we have to implement game modes and randomness could be one of them.

      We do like the idea of game modes.

      And so I do think that that will come eventually.

      And like, who knows, maybe there could be mod support for making your own game modes.

      Like, that'd be cool.

      So, uh, definitely not an impossibility.

      It would be super cool if we had that.
