Underground and caves
Not Enough Votes
Make mining underground easier and plausible with cave systems. There is just so much potential and so many ideas. Just refer to Minecraft.
I've suggested this and then some but it was all ignored.

I heard this was possible in Unity (I'm not sure how VRage handles caves)
Basically, you would have two extra heightmaps in the planet terrain files that creates a void between them. Intersect them with the ore map and you've got something similar to Minecraft, in that, you can go spelunking for ore rather than digging a hole strait down.
Would be pretty cool to run into natural cave systems. And would give rovers a reason to exist.
