Release Notes
Rework how the vegetation and harvesting systems deal with instancing objects for both the player and workers. The goals is a more consistent and seamless interaction for both, and for the player to not be able to tell what is instanced and what isn't. This is necessary as new harvestable items are introduced as this enables more natural distribution of resources such as clusters of mushrooms in forested areas, and vast dense open fields of wild einkorn etc.
Remove staged resources on builder map and replace with only instanced resources, minor performance improvement.
