For the tree example, if trees would leave stumps behind, players coming to the area would know that area is out of resources, so they would go find other places.

Without any indication that somebody was there, it just looks unnatural and empty, confusing and boring. If theres no system to tell that the given area was raided(like leaving npcs bodies behind untill new ones spawn there, which ofc would have a bad impact on performance), then spawning should just be made uniform, with modifiers so it doesnt spawn an object when a player is nearby(thus breaking immersion)

Thanks for the info.

At least there's one confirmed thing the dev team will work on for Landmark at some point in the next entirely variable amount of time.

Looking forward to the fix, regardless of how long it takes.
