Honestly, I hate the storms.
Not because they exist, but because there is no way to mitigate them.
Slabs work until you get to heavy storms, then they don't. Storms just seem to break all the rules.
So I got in a raft and just sailed out to nowhere. Worked until one day it just didn't and one of the spawns managed to snag me on the way falling down.
So, I just turn them off.
It's a neat idea, but the fact that you can't have any kind of mitigation other than gearing up, and even then you could spawn things way above your current gear and they spawn literally anywhere but a 1x1 hole you're currently in.....
Naw. I'm good.
