Add a config to disable some ore generation #172

Closed MOLJOLL closed 8 months ago

MOLJOLL commented 8 months ago

Is there an existing feature request for this?

Describe what you would like added or changed

Please add a config to control ore generation, at least allow the player to completely disable the generation of a type of the railcraft ores. When I was trying to make a modpack with Railcraft and Thermal Series (and Create), it was a mess that these three mods were trying to generate the same ores. Although they are sharing the same tags (or ore dictionary for old versions), but it isn't that balanced, the density of the ores is not that reasonable. By the way, I'm just wondering that do you have the plan of updating the ores' texture for "1.17+ style". English is not my mother tongue, so please ignore my mistakes.

The concept of config that disables ore generation no longer exists, everything is done from json files. You have two options:

As for textures, we are open to collaborating with someone who knows about graphics to modernize the mod.

I'll leave this comment pinned in case anyone has the same question and anyone who wants to contribute with graphics can leave a comment below.

Oh, I didn't notice that. Anyway, thank you!

Deleting the related json files for ore gen from the jar causes the game to crash upon the mouseclick for create new world. I tried a few angles, including attempting to make a datapack, but I cannot get it to cooperate. Having some feature that makes it easy to disable ore gen for those of us who are not adept coders would be an excellent feature. I can attach the most recent cresh log if you believe that would be helpful.

You could simply edit the file with notepad, set the value of “size” into 0. The crash also happened when I tried to delete the file, so deleting the file is not effective.
