No Plans to Implement Add back stone generators!

So I was going to make a stone generator and it didn't work. So then I checked the updates and it looks like this mechanic was removed due to players creating cobble monsters.
While I am against cobble monster creation, I also like stone generators so I have two possible solutions:

1. The more simple/worse solution: make lava only be placeable below a certain y level, this should be the more simple solution as it should be similar to how you prevented water being placed in caves in the RI, and would limit cobble monster generation to be almost useless. Although limiting lava height would also make it impossible to use in surface builds.

2. What I think is the better solution: Allow town owners to create a zone that would allow stone/cobblestone generators to function. I'd imagine this option would be harder to do, but would make cobble monster generation impossible to most people who would like to grief this way.

How is a stone generator any different from just going and mining stone under your town?

a lot of the stone I've gathered on loka has been under my town idk how its different for other tiles/continents but im 50% sure most of the tiles have stone under them

This could probably lead to people making afk stone generators and make town levels afk-able with Excavation and I think some people might not want that

Just walk over to a neutral tile and start mining away and you don't need to be concerned about creating pockets under the surface because neutral tiles regenerate.
You have to own (or alliance owns) a territory to make permanent changes to a tile. If it's a neutral, or owned by another town/alliance, all block changes will revert.
Only thing is you will be missing out on haste but thats the price of infinite stone I guess.

It would also take a while to regenerate, I'm not sure on the exact time, but I wouldn't call it stone Gen fast.
