Since I've let this lack of Acid Anthills go one much longer than I originally intended I will explain a bit more about how I envisioned re-adding them.

I wanted to be able to reuse the existing JSON maps for the non-acid anthill. But obviously they need different creatures in them. So, I was planning to take advantage of mapgen parameters to specify the category of ants present.

However, some of the monsters are defined at the OMT level, and there's currently no support for mapgen parameters at the OMT level, so this was waiting on that to be added.

No worries! Take your time lmao, I just put this up so that it could get a bit more attention. Sorry if I put any unneeded pressure on you!

Honestly, I don't miss acid anthills at all. In my experience they're just a giant "no-go" zone on the map, similar to how fungus can be.
