Ore frequency overhaul

Post by cpy »

We know that frequency goes from very low to very high. Is there a possibility to add super low (4x lower than very low) and ultra low (16x more rare) ore spawn? This could help ore spawn without using resource spawn overhaul mod.

Instead of Very Low, Low etc we could have multipliers. 1x is normal, and substitute High with it's equivalent multiplier (2x) and do the same for the lower values. It could be an option in the game creation menu ("Advanced Control").

Yeah advanced configuration that would give numbers instead of very low normal etc would be really nice. :)
That's much better suggestion than mine.

Yeah, fine controls for Frequency, Density and size sound like a great idea to me too.

Sadly not even in planned, yet this seems like an easy task. :(
