As well as low amounts of durasteel, very low

I am using a mod that makes ores bright so i can see in the asteroids, and i havent found any at all, and it says it is in the asteroid field

Loading this version together with FU seems to be the only way to get it to work. The FU version doesn't load for me and FU does not contain this mod for me either.

ready your Mining Mechs Since This Is gonna be a Trip!

I like how ore spawns are based on star type, i.e. titanium only on radioactive and above, but I find durasteel, titanium, and solarite spawn in very low quantities. Is there a way to increase the spawn chance, or size of the veins?
Evenrude 6 Jun, 2018 @ 4:53am 
well it's a good mod but decrese the number of ores like by 50% at least the iron ore and copper cus that is overpowerd:steammocking:

Is ore generation based on star type? Titanium is 0.4 and Tungsten is 0.48, yet I collected 1500 tungsten ore and only 170 titanium.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this makes absolutely no sense.

for your FU compatiable version I found if you have ISE4-R installed here on steam workshop the spawn rate is great, but if not it is very bad. Check that out and why that is so.

too imbalance

I don't see any ores above Durasteel, and Titanium & Durasteel rarely appear.

Teh Coolest That Aint Plausable
CrusadingPriest 20 Oct, 2017 @ 8:08am 
For some reason all of the astroids stopped having large groupings of ore. Now they only get about 4-6 ore in a group.
floorwaxer2 14 Oct, 2017 @ 7:08pm 
#shootDemNoobs astriods do not spawn with some ores
Sixixix 14 Oct, 2017 @ 1:50pm

Cyanbug 11 Oct, 2017 @ 6:15pm

Thanks, great mod! :)
BirdMan 24 Sep, 2017 @ 4:24pm

contractually obligated beating 24 Sep, 2017 @ 4:13am 
i find almost no ore wtf
Reef 22 Sep, 2017 @ 2:39pm 
Would work really great for Pixel Farming!
FlamingBlade 22 Sep, 2017 @ 11:41am 
you should remove early game ores since it makes progress super fast to be able to just find an asteroid field and dig immediately and go up 4 tiers
Triel 22 Sep, 2017 @ 11:41am 
brings back the memories of when you took a nanostove and dug asteroids because they were so much easier than planets, a bit harder but still
MasterOfBacon 21 Sep, 2017 @ 1:06pm 
perfect ore scale not too much not too little I notice I had to go deeper into the asteroid to find higher tier ores which I really liked just make sure you update for 1.4 ;) ?
Greystar 21 Sep, 2017 @ 6:19am 
TY Sub'd and Rated Up, good idea
Hexellate  [author] 21 Sep, 2017 @ 6:15am 
@Greystar If you have not visited a specific asteroid field before adding this mod, then that asteroid field will have the extra ores.
Greystar 21 Sep, 2017 @ 6:09am 
can this me added to an existing "world" as long as you've not visited any asteroids?
jj003333 21 Sep, 2017 @ 5:11am

Lawaern 20 Sep, 2017 @ 8:19pm 
Thanks for making this m9
VinchenzoTheJackal & Shoon 20 Sep, 2017 @ 3:55pm 
I'm rating this up as it is a good valuable addition to anyone's collection of mods.
VinchenzoTheJackal & Shoon 20 Sep, 2017 @ 3:55pm 
Asteroids, and Meteors, tend to share a similar mineral composition IRL.
They are capable of containing base metals like Copper, Iron, as well as Silver, Gold, and the alloy metal Platinum.
However they do not contain other alloy metals like Steel, DuraSteel, Titanium, and Tungsten. These metals don't occur naturally.
Also, the fantasy metals Violum and etc clearly would only be present in a Sci-Fi fiction and games, and if they would appear, they would be very VERY rare.
This mod is very nice, but very unrealistic since the only ores that should ever be common is Copper, Iron, Silver, Gold and Platinum, and everything else should be VERY rare.

@Thrawn
I just checked, Tungsten does not spawn on asteroids in vanilla, so if you have seen it then this mod is working.
Hexellate  [author] 20 Sep, 2017 @ 9:50am 
I have adjusted spawn rates to hopefully improve ores being too rare, although it may need further adjusting.

Keep in mind that ores can spawn in the centre of asteroids where you can't see them.
jj003333 20 Sep, 2017 @ 8:39am 
Im having the same problem. been to 3 belts and found nothing but copper, gold and silver
Thrawn 20 Sep, 2017 @ 7:00am 
No, this is the only one, maybe I just have to keep looking! I'll just keep searching for now!
Hexellate  [author] 20 Sep, 2017 @ 6:36am 
@Thrawn
Asteroid fields are not affected by tier. Do you have any other mods installed?
Thrawn 20 Sep, 2017 @ 6:13am 
I've tried this 3 times now, I found tungsten once, but I don't know if this was because of the mod or because its in the game, do I maybe have to go to higher tier planet-asteroidsfields?
Hexellate  [author] 20 Sep, 2017 @ 5:37am 
@Thrawn You need to go to a new asteroid field for it to work.
Thrawn 20 Sep, 2017 @ 5:32am 
How do you activate the mod? I subscribed and then I played on my excisting account. Do I have to start a new one or does the mod auomaticly activate?
Jones 27 20 Sep, 2017 @ 5:31am 
really cool mod. definitely would like to see some variants of it. for example more basic ores in comparision to rare ones.
