[2.20] Resource zone is square

[mr.WHO]

Resource zone in SIlent Witness I and Path to Profit are perfect squares:

While perfect circle/sphere is something that can occur in Space, I think there is no natural perfect square

This looks like some kind of overlook in sector design.

Can confirm this is still the case in 2.50 B2.

The fields should probably be made circular like The Reach since circles are more natural than squares.

Yep, noticed the same thing today and was just getting ready to create a post until I saw this one. Not using beta in case that matters.

Now that's something cool. Now I won't freak out when I stumble on some strange cube out there.

the resource zones in those clusters are disc or sphere shaped, it is a limitation of the map that they get cut off at a certain distance.

they extend further than the rectangular shape - this was done for performance reasons.

Does it mean this can be fixed by scalling down the resource disc/sphere? Or maybe putting several small spheres instead one big?
It shouldn't be a problem unless someone has like 300+ mining ships there.
