2125 Planetary Ores

This mod does two things in pursuit of a goal. First is to add uranium and platinum to all vanilla planets and moons.
Second is to add Duron, Lead, and Xabrium custom ores from 2125 era mod to planets and moons. Intention is to allow people access to all existing ores without them being forced to go into space to get them or utilize them. While I understand why the original changes to Uranium were made relegating it to asteroids, and why platinum is only on moons or asteroids, I did not agree with them for two big reasons. First reason being that it forces people to into space to find certain resources when they may have more fun planet side. For people who wish to remain planetside, this essentially hamstrung them and their ability to access certain items within the game. While economy can alleviate some of that by trading with NPC factions, it doesn't close the gap to the degree I would like. Also economy didn't exist when the Uranium change was initially made.

There are 3 distinct ore distribution plans you can see below. These ore distributions were created based on the available slots for ore spawns in the ore spawning maps. Earth, Mars, Alien, Titan, Moon and Europa all had additional slots from when uranium was previously present, allowing me to give it back to them in its own dedicated veins.
Titan, Moon, and Europa had additional slots for already existing platinum spawns and previously existing uranium. This allowed me to give one of the custom ores its own vein. Pertam and Triton were created well after the changes to Uranium were made and as such its ore slots were a bit more limited when compared to previously existing planets and moons. As such I was forced to do a bit more double stacking of certain ores. Three ore distributions below are meant to give people a decent amount of each element without resulting in an ore flood.

Some of you may like the distributions and some of you may not. This mod was made a separate thing from the 2125 main mod to give folks the choice of whether they want the custom ores to be on their planets or not as this is a drastic change from current ore distributions. This mod requires 2125 era main mod to function and has no functionaltiy
without it.

Notes:
-Restores some uranium to vanilla planets and moons that previously had it
-Adds some platinum to vanilla moons and planets
-Adds Uranium and Platinum to Pertam and Triton for first time
-Adds Duron, Lead, and Xabrium to vanilla moons and planets associated with 2125 era mod

Earhtlike, Mars, Alien planet:
-Uranium and Platinum found in their own standlone veins.
-Xabrium found near Gold ore. If you found Gold you possibly found Xabrium.
-Lead found near Magnesium. If you found Magnesium you've likely found Lead.
-Duron found near Cobalt. If you found Cobalt 50/50 chance you found Duron.

Titan, Moon, Europa:
-Uranium found in its own standalone veins
-Xabrium found in its own standalone veins
-Lead found near Magnesium. If you found Magnesium you've likely found Lead.
-Duron found near Cobalt. If you found Cobalt 50/50 chance you found Duron

Triton and Pertam:
-Uranium found with Silver. If you found Silver you possibly found uranium.
-Platinum found with Silicon. If you found Silicon you possibly found Platinum
-Duron found with Cobalt. If you found Cobalt 50/50 chance you found Duron.
-Lead found with Magnesium. If you found Magnesium you've likely found Lead.
-Duron found near cobalt. If you found cobalt 50/50 chance you found Duron
