Hi all I need some help.
Is there a way of adding oil deposits to a current game play.
Only cause I can't find any more on my map.
I've already died several times and lost about 20 cars and tanks exploring.
I'm on a infinate size map and using bobs infinate resource mod.
I don't really want to restart as I've already put in 70 hours of play time.

Re: Lack of oil deposits
Other options include adding speed modules and possibly also beacons to any existing oil patches, coal liquefaction (https://wiki.factorio.com/Oil_processing) and exploring the map using console commands (https://wiki.factorio.com/Console#Revea ... the_player), so you at least know where to expand.
If you want to be able to get achievements, you can save the game, reveal the map, find out where there is oil, then load the save you made before issuing any console commands. Sometimes I find oil hard to spot if the biters have a built a base over the oil. If you can't spot any oil after revealing large areas of the map, it might be worth using console commands to kill all enemies (https://wiki.factorio.com/Console#Kill_all_enemies).
