[Stellar Engineers] Procedurally Generated Ore (with Triton & Pertam)

Description
This mod replaces the ore spawning maps for all of the vanilla planets. Ore are less frequent and typically occur in larger veins of only one ore. The planet spawns are similar. See the table below for ore spawns for each planet.

This will lead to a much more difficult resource mining loop. You will no longer have everything you need within 800m of wherever you start on a planet. Scouting will also play an important role. You will have to spend some time finding the ore veins you need then how you'll get them back to your base etc. Early game will likely depend more on surface rocks and eventually the survival stone to ingot recipe.

The table below shows the occurrence of each ore on each planet. One unit here represents a 30x30 square meter patch on the EarthLike planet.

No, because I don't use this on my server and this need too much modification on script which I'm using to generate this ores bitmaps.

Is it possible to add compatibility with Better Stone?

Actually I'm not planning to create other mod than this auto generated with changed seed. To do, what you want, I need to rewrite whole generator's base code. I'm prefering random placement of ore on my SE server.

Would you be willing to make a version where Iron, Nickel & Silicon spawn between 15-45m and doubling Cobalt, Silver, Magnesium, Gold, Uraninite & Platinum?
Bartek Sz.  [author] 18 Mar, 2024 @ 10:34pm 
@Raynor, only for ores.
Raynor 18 Mar, 2024 @ 8:19am 
Nice! Will this effect stone or ice at all or just ores?
