This mod periodically uploads each user's base snapshot to the server, and when one enters a new map, this database provides pieces of those stored bases as templates for abandoned ruins.
Perhaps you'll find just empty dirty shelter with badly damaged wooden bed and a pair of chairs. Perhaps you'll be lucky enough to find someone's silver vault before scavengers from the nearest settlement arrive.
Also this mod provides two events:
Caravan found ruins happens while travelling. You can stop and investigate small ruins complex. It usually does not have any really valuable, but it worth checking anyway. It can contain hostile people or aimals though.
Pristine ruins found: a large abandoned base was discovered nearby. All local settlements sending troops there to loot, and you can also participate in this massacre. Stakes are high, but reward is even higher.
