## Why It's Good For The Game
There was a bunch of little things that annoyed me about this ruin, so I
went through and changed a lot.

Replacing the solid plasma and welding fuel sinks was important because
those were silly and added little to gameplay. The plasma chamber can be
siphoned off into canisters and taken to the station where they can be
sold, or sabotaged to create fiery clouds. Instead of removing the sinks
entirely, I made them dispense liquid plasma instead and changed the
sprites. Making them into solid sheets is a fun puzzle for miners to
solve.

The road also had to go. The pipes appearing above ground looked awful
and the decals didn't work. So now it's a section of asphalt road. The
asphalt can be removed, it's basalt underneath. This helps the outside
match Lavaland's pallette better. The road was shortened to make the
ruin more compact and look better when it generated over lava, I hated
the roads ending cleanly in the middle of a lava lake.

The inside didn't get changed a lot. Atmos was fixed so it filters out
Lavaland stink. Some minor cosmetic stuff like adding posters to bare
walls and moving the freezer section away from the door. The backrooms
got expanded and now has a sofa so it's more usable as a break room.
## Changelog
🆑
