0007241: Finder cannot find flux stone
I've generated about 8 worlds with .03 and not a single one of them has flux stone according to the site finder. I did a few pocket worlds and then worked my way up in size thinking it might just be an issue with small worlds. Nope. I re-downloaded .03 and ran it vanilla and generated 2 worlds with completely stock settings. Still no flux stone according to the finder.

Please note, I haven't *played* these world to see if there is or is not any flux on the maps. It may be that that there is no flux at all but all I've tested so far is the finder not reporting any.
Generate world.
Plays in dwarf mode.
Attempt to find a site with flux stone.
Zero results.
No tags attached.

Wow, guess I just must just be lucky. I went back to the generator and kept at it and was able to generate a map with flux stone. Its still pretty touch and go though. I generated 5 pocket or small worlds and only 1 had flux stone. It seems to be an all or nothing thing.

Sounds like 0005732, but please reopen this if that doesn't explain it.
