Directly Abandon Settlement

Have you found yourself with tons of “abandoned settlement” tiles? This mod aims to fix that. When you abandon a base, it skips creating those persistent abandoned markers or lets you clear them after a configurable cooldown.


A utility mod that helps keep the world map tidy after you move on. Whether you're launching off-world, going nomadic, or just relocating, this tool gives you full control over what happens to the tile you leave behind.

Key Features:

• Skip abandoned settlement markers entirely on abandonment. (If Cooldown is disabled)
• Optionally impose a cooldown (1–180 days) before clearing a tile.
• Abandoning settlements uses the stock Abandon button, to not conflict with any other mods.
• Gizmo has been updated to show when/if cooldown is already active after normal abandonment.
• Cooldown display in tile inspect window.
