Summary0007123: Cannot place wind shelters in lava flats
DescriptionWas told to bug this, so here it is! Tried using the wind shelter power on a lava flats, and was told "Power cannot be used here because none of the missions it can generate are eligible for spawning here (yeah, kind of odd, please report this to the developers with a copy of your world)".

For 0.933:

* Fixed the "why you cannot use this guardian power" messages to be more exact and hopefully remove any remaining cases where it has to use the message that admits it's really odd and asks you to tell the developers about it (if you do see that, let us know, because that means we missed a case).

Thanks :)

FYI, you're not supposed to be able to wind-shelter "hostile terrain", which includes lava flats. It just wasn't giving you the right error message :)

This brings up a question. Wind shelters can only be placed in wind, bordering non-wind. In the case where there is a peninsula with lava flats right at the border of the wind, it would be impossible to ever remove the wind there or further on.

Is this on purpose?

I could see someone complaining about not being able to put the wind shelter right before the lava flats, even though that spot would already be protected.

An expanse of lava flats over 4 regions long makes sense for blocking shelters, but the odd boundary case seems strange.

I think the restriction on location is to require the player to build the wind shelter under the conditions of a wind storm. This could use a lore reason. I don't have a clue as to what it would be, since the windmills never, by definition, have any wind near them!
