Is there a way to get the mod back when it doubled Ore rates period..no scaling, and is there a way to increase it past 2X? thanks for responding to all my questions by the way.. it seems the lag was caused by Starbound itself and not your mod. As my wife who does not currently have the mod is experiencing the same lag issues as me.
Negative and yes I believe its able to go far above 2x. I am thinking of doing a couple flavors since the feedback seems to be all over the place. But hey it's good feedback nonetheless In time I'm sure Chucklefish will have their game running as smoothly and as stable as possible. We are still in the progenitor beta stage.
Like Taiine suggested, I think it would be nice to also have a 'more coal' version that just increases coal. (It could be made a separate mod, or the extra download could be as a link or offered in the Version History.) Also, while I realize that v1.1 has already been reduce to make it "less of a game breaker," perhaps a "lite" or "Less is Moar" version could be made? Like Myou suggested, perhaps offer a separate version that gives 1.5x more ores too? You did say, "I thought it might be too much for some." Question: Has it been confirmed that (original) Starbound has more ore density the deeper you mine? I know there tends to be more rare ores, but are there usually more ores in general?
I plan on making at least a Less is Moar Ore (primarily a fuel ore increase), and a Ore Galore (3-4x more ore) and balancing this version between the two if need be. However It probably won't be for a week or two, holidays and all. Plus my priority project is SoME right now (with the exception of releasing Moar Music made while testing things on SoME). As for your question about confirming if a clean Starbound distributes more ore in deeper levels the answer is yes. More type's and more of those type's. I also believe that the planets level is taken into account somewhere. It very well could be the first float. I'm not sure if that is a depth value or planet level (idk why they'd use floats on a simple 1-10lvl planet system so.. idk) Code: //Default Values "surfaceOres" : [ [0.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.00], [ "silverore", 0.90], [ "gold", 0.85], [ "platinum", 0.00], [ "diamond", 0.00], [ "iron", 1.05] ]], [1.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.05], [ "silverore", 1.00], [ "gold", 0.90], [ "platinum", 0.80], [ "diamond", 0.00], [ "iron", 1.15] ]], [2.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.10], [ "silverore", 1.05], [ "gold", 1.00], [ "platinum", 0.85], [ "diamond", 0.80], [ "titanium", 1.05] ]], [3.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.10], [ "gold", 1.05], [ "platinum", 0.90], [ "diamond", 0.85], [ "titanium", 1.15] ]], [4.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.10], [ "platinum", 1.00], [ "diamond", 0.90], [ "aegisalt", 1.05] ]], [5.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.05], [ "diamond", 1.00], [ "aegisalt", 1.15] ]], [6.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.10], [ "diamond", 1.05], [ "Cerulium", 1.05] ]], [7.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 1.05], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.15], [ "diamond", 1.10], [ "Cerulium", 1.15] ]], [8.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 1.05], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.15], [ "diamond", 1.15], [ "Rubium", 1.05] ]], [9.5, [ [ "coal", 1.05], [ "uranium", 1.05], [ "plutonium", 1.05], [ "solarium", 1.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.15], [ "diamond", 1.15], [ "Rubium", 1.15] ]] ], "subsurfaceOres" : [ [0.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.05], [ "silverore", 0.95], [ "gold", 0.90], [ "platinum", 0.80], [ "diamond", 0.00], [ "iron", 1.10] ]], [1.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.10], [ "silverore", 1.05], [ "gold", 0.95], [ "platinum", 0.85], [ "diamond", 0.80], [ "iron", 1.20] ]], [2.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.15], [ "silverore", 1.10], [ "gold", 1.05], [ "platinum", 0.90], [ "diamond", 0.85], [ "titanium", 1.10] ]], [3.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 0.00], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.15], [ "gold", 1.10], [ "platinum", 0.95], [ "diamond", 0.90], [ "titanium", 1.20] ]], [4.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.15], [ "platinum", 1.05], [ "diamond", 0.95], [ "aegisalt", 1.10] ]], [5.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.20], [ "platinum", 1.10], [ "diamond", 1.05], [ "aegisalt", 1.20] ]], [6.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 0.00], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.20], [ "platinum", 1.15], [ "diamond", 1.10], [ "Cerulium", 1.10] ]], [7.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 1.10], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.20], [ "platinum", 1.20], [ "diamond", 1.15], [ "Cerulium", 1.20] ]], [8.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 1.10], [ "solarium", 0.00], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.20], [ "platinum", 1.20], [ "diamond", 1.20], [ "Rubium", 1.10] ]], [9.5, [ [ "coal", 1.10], [ "uranium", 1.10], [ "plutonium", 1.10], [ "solarium", 1.02], [ "copper", 1.20], [ "silverore", 1.20], [ "gold", 1.20], [ "platinum", 1.20], [ "diamond", 1.20], [ "Rubium", 1.20] ]] ], //And so on and so forth.

Download the updated MoarOrePack and use OreGalore if you want it took look like the picture. 1.0 is no longer available.
Omg , Somehow I forgot the surface levels for silver in OreGalore... Incoming patch. *The numbers we're left as the defaults for the first 3 depth levels. So silver is there somewhere (especially deeper) but in comparison... it's really not. ** I can't believe I missed that... no cookies for me today

Nice a mod for the noobs Make the game even more easier! Haha, just sharing a little hate. Don't take it personally, i just don't see why peoples would want to make their game even more easier... guess it always been like that and it won't ever change!
Just FYI: Starbound is still in beta and game balance is ongoing. Depending on RNG dice rolls, some may find their planets a bit low on ores. And some do not enjoy the mining aspect of the game as much as other aspects. It can seem tedious. (Particularly for certain ores, like coal. Fueling the ship can be hard.) So they'd prefer to spend less time mining. Also, some find getting into this game a bit difficult and/or frustrating, particularly since it is not well documented and features can change - sometimes drastically - between updates. There is a learning curve, whether you want to admit it or not. Though, obviously, some will find it easier or more intuitive than others (such as experience with similar games). In single-player mode, I see nothing wrong with using various cheats as a "trainer" to make it a bit less frustrating to learn. Anyway, this mod is not quite as cheaty as it sounds. It increases the ores up to double the normal amount the deeper you dig. So surface ores should be about the same. There were a number of people complaining how, compared to Terraria, Starbound does not have a huge incentive to dig down deep. This mod changes that a bit. Finally... "noob"? Why did you have to use that term? Unlike "newbie", the term "noob" is extremely derogatory - insulting even. Urban Dictionary says, Or, perhaps, you meant the 2nd definition of noob? That is, referring to someone who "won in a 'cheating'" or cheap manner? Even so, it's still a derogatory term.
Personally I think you both make valid points. The mod is half a cheat mod, the other half gives more of a reason to explore and go underground. It's newbie friendly, as well as helping any vets to voxel games get where they want to go faster (or back to where they were before a wipe). If you want to increase the difficulty of Starbound there are mods that do that too. Everyone has their own way to play and there is nothing wrong with that.
I didn't mean it as in an insult, more like a joke at those who will use this to make the game easier, which i think is a bit "cheating".. In no way i meant to offend you or anyone, sorry if i did..
Hey, I have a question. I made a new folder with the name ''mods'' in my starbound directory, but when I put one of the 3 mods in there, nothing happens. Can you tell me what I did wrong ?
Yes I know, getting there. I woke up an hour ago and am just diving into updating everything. There should already be a mods folder in your Starbound folder. No need to make one. Also the mod is outdated as of this morning.
