The Creative mode in Freeplay doesn't have much use at the moment other than giving the player freedom to do whatever they want. I thought it would be cool to turn it into a "premade base save" mechanic, like in 3.2.

Some rules I would suggest:

1. Give the player only half of their ants and food. (Like 3.2)
2. No food stores, leaf stores, refuse tiles, or speed tiles will be saved.
3. A cap amount of tiles dug and food spent for it to be a viable "starter base"

It would be cool to be able to upload the save files for the bases as well to share with the forum.

that would also be great for formicarium to create and test new designs of colonies before creating them in the definitive way that it represents (as we can't replace dug blocks and it's harder to go and start a new one as it is for freeplay)
