Make ores less rare

[Wimali]

I'll just post the logs okay:
Ogarci: Someone should double the ore spawn rates in the global map settings.
Ogarci: Just saying
Wimali: why should the ore spawn rates be doubled
Ogarci: Because they're like
Ogarci: 0.00001 right now
Ogarci: If they're still the same from when I set them

and some more but basically, a lot of players think there aren't enough ores and they want there to be ores.

Moar ores!

I was disappointed when I only found ONE coal ore whilst mining on RoF the other day...

Actually, wouldn't it be best to list the percentages of ore-types per round if you're requesting for a change so they won't have to do the math? I'm sure that they'd be the same for each map, but the amount would be different per each ore.

Coal Ore - 25% spawn rate
Iron Ore - 10%
Gold Ore - 5%
Diamond - .05%

 

[Ogarci]

The current spawn rates for (all?) of the maps are:

Iron: 0.0006%
Coal: 0.003%
Gold: 0.00004%
Diamond: 0.00001%
Emerald: 0.00003%
Monster egg: 0.0003%

So if you have 50,000 stone blocks, there will be about:

30 Iron
150 Coal
2 Gold
1/2 a block of diamond
1 and 1/2 block of emerald.

Well, it looks like my percentages were way off...
