Pave from stockpiles

[CaddoPuma]

I hope this is a new idea. I searched key word "pave", then searched in results "stockpile", and again in those results searched "survey" and didnt find anything on this so here's hoping.

Currently you can fill land by terraforming using any dirt stockpile within the survey area. Is it possible to allow a similar mechanic for paving so that if I survey a large area, I can pull from any stockpile in that area for paving?

From one side, it's a bit of QoL but from other, You still would need to drink every-so-often for biggers areas.

And from the other side, it would allow alts/players with little inventory space to pave so much, that there's as much - as + for it.

Also it would allow to reach over walls into ore stockpiles (destructive only, but bad enough).

Idk, man. Seems really prone to unintended behaviors down in mine with stockpiles around and such.

Touche'. Is it possible with coding to make it work only on the surface? That's where I (and I assume most players) do all my bulk paving anyway. Or it could be as simple as "Make sure your survey area doesnt cover a stockpile you dont want used for paving that area."

I think there's been at least one story of someone's ore getting sucked into a landscape or building project unintentionally because the stockpile was too close to the work zone posted to the forums.
