Ores Rebalance

<p>This mod rebalances the spawning mechanics of ores to encourage exploration, risk, and reward.&nbsp;<strong>OreRebalance</strong>&nbsp;significantly reduces the frequency of ore deposits but compensates by making them far larger when discovered. Each vein becomes a valuable, long-lasting resource, transforming mining into a strategic endeavor rather than a routine task.</p> <h3>Key Changes:</h3> <ul> <li> <p><strong>Rarity vs. Richness</strong>: Ores now spawn less frequently but generate in&nbsp;<strong>massive clusters</strong>, ensuring that locating a vein feels impactful.</p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Malachite</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Iron Ores</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Zinc &amp; Titanium</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Chromite &amp; Plenthedite</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Sulfur</strong></p> </li> <li> <p><strong>Graphite</strong></p> </li> </ul> <h3><strong>Roadmap</strong></h3> <ul> <li><strong>Balance all vanila ores and config source stones</strong></li> <li><strong>Add config. maybe</strong></li> <li><strong>Add geology additions compability</strong></li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2 id="changes">Changes</h2> <p>All the changes can be understood from the tables.
