About this mod #
This mod is designed to make the game more diverse and unpredictable. As you expand your base or simply explore the surface of Nauvis, you will find abandoned constructions left behind by someone else, among those will be storages with useful resources, deserted production lines, as well as whole complexes for mass production of various parts. And be careful! Sometimes a find can be dangerous. And do not expect that every find will be easy to use.
#Current state# Over 100 area templates including their variations, which may be one of the following: + up to 256x256 tiles in size + static, randomized or even dynamic + with rich or poor prizes + ruined (partially or fully) + harmless or dangerous + can gift you with new technologies or unique recipes, or not ;) And much more in future updates...

##VideoSpotlight## Thanks Xterminator for this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQ3uRGX6vLU Mod version 1.1.4
#How it works# Only newly generated chunks (zones) affected. So dont worry about already explored territory. When event occur, firstly works global random generator (chance of positive result varied on mod setting), and if it positive, then starts working second generator and select approved areas (depends on their own probability). And finaly third generator choose one from list to place on surface. It's not so complicated, but guarantees that, what every time when you start or continue playing - you get unique result. No dependencies. You can freely enable or disable this mod in the middle of the game. Solo/multiplayer/dedicate/pvp - frendly (in teory). Not tested well enough. Anyway, multi-forces/surfaces support added for multiplayer/pvp game sessions. No noticeable drops of FPS or UPS even on huge maps.
#Your own variations# You can add your own madden areas. Just modify expansion mod [[Z] Adventure expansion (example)](https://mods.factorio.com/mod/ZAdv_example "[Z] Adventure expansion (example)") and share it. All you need is check areas.lua file and read description inside.
Good Luck! And sorry for my english ;) iZlovreD © 2018
FAQ
What this mod about? ##
As written in description, this mod add random areas when you explore the map.
Where can i find info about possible areas? ##
in forum thread under "Area types" spoiler.
How do i find out what area was created? ##
Just find and see. ;)
How often it happens? ##
In settings you can find an option which handle overall chance (you can change it). This chance calculated every time when new territory generated by the game. Then placement checks happens (water,cliffs, ect.). Also each area has their own chance to be placed (you can't change it) and some additional restrics. Anyway, if you feel that new areas spawns to frequently - ask me to change this.
Why can't i interact with some buildings? ##
This is how it was conceived to save area integrity. Some restrictions were applied so the buildings couldn't be repurposed.
What is dangerous areas? ##
Some areas are defended in different ways, to prevent easy access to what they contain. Do not underestimate their defensive capabilities.
What to do if mod is not working? ##
Have you encountered an error or just haven't seen anything yet? If it's an error, then please post a most possible detailed info in discussion section or on forum, please. If you simply haven't encountered any buildings yet, it might be because you just haven't explored far enough! However if you won't find any after exploring for a long time, then please leave feedback as well, if possible with your client version and all the mods you were using.
