I have begun hardmode in my singleplayer normal-difficulty world and I have noticed that all the purity-preparation I have gone through before beating the WoF has partly gone to waste. I had dug three-block-wide tunnels around my pylons, base, oceans, jungle and other places but the first thing I noticed was that even though I have "protected" my jungle biome the hallow has partly spawned inside the jungle rendering my tunnel useless. I have used the clentaminator countless times but I will never be sure that it's safe from it happening again. The jungle is one thing, but the most tedious thing about biome spread is the underground corruption. Pre-hardmode I have quarantined all my corruption biomes using bomb-tunnels because I only want a small amount of corruption in my world. Now obviously because the good and evil spirits are released a V shape of both hallow and corruption have spawned and I have an entire half of a gigantic V-shape of corruption to deal with while I'm underground plus the other half being hallow which isn't as awful but I still want both biomes to be contained in the surface. I just don't understand how this is supposed to be fun, because for me it feels like a giant tedious chore to maintain world purity, if even possible. My question is, how do you guys cope with this? I tried using the clentaminator but my pirate farm produces underwhelming money so purchasing green solution is a slow process. Using the clentaminator is another thing, because although it does purify a larger radius than your regular purification powder, you still need to go searching the whole world looking for every possible nook and cranny that haven't been purified. If the only solution to this is digging hellevators all across the map to use the clentaminator with, that'd be really inconvenient as I don't want to ruin my world. Again, I don't understand how this makes the game fun to play during hardmode. Before I knew this painful truth I thought there was a way to instantly purify the world but to my knowledge there is only a manual Clentaminator and the feature of biome spread being slower after beating certain hardmode bosses but that's it. It could be that I'm the problem because maybe I'm too lazy to go exploring for all the corruption or hallow to purify or because I can't handle that much imperfection and I'm overreacting in general. So as a recap, is there some sort of tool that can be made early, mid-hardmode or atleast endgame that does the purification work for you?
Update: I saw a video from chippy announcing Biome Sight Potions coming in 1.4.4
It's not bad as a solution to my problem, and I wish it comes soon.
