Please please please PLEASE, make it so we can tear down any building or structure that isn't essential to gameplay. I'm so tired of finding places I'd like to build but there is a coffin, shed or statue in the middle of it. At least let us move it with build mode.
The watery bits are flat. I am simply building everything on foundations I have placed in the sea/lake.
In the Abeyance realm, it seems like every single flat area that would be great for building has some level of POI in it. A lot of them are just rubble and maybe a piece of meat. Or a few statues. Having those things is great to add more atmosphere to the game. But having them permanent ends up removing a lot of possible building locations from the map.
A secondary point is rocks. There are some small to medium "boulders" that are not breakable that end up blocking what would otherwise be a good building location. They are important for the appearance of the landscape... until we decide we want to build on that given location and end up having to design around a large rock or find somewhere else.
I agree, even if just for non-storied realms
