I get not being able to erase them with a mere lighter, but I was expecting the level of fire needed to eradicate them to be increased, not outright be unable to get rid of a bit of fungal bed field. Not the first time I have to reconsider a potential base, but when either the Refugee Center, the Hub 01, or the Isolated Artisans spawns next to a fungal tower it becomes almost mandatory for me to restart now since they are kinda essential to me. Heck the Tacoma Ranch sometimes gets it too, which is a bit sad considering how much I got involved in setting them up.
