Asteroid Ore Spawning #139

Hi,

I've been looking for a mod to remove specific ores from asteroids but I couldn't find the one I needed. I'm not sure if that's even possible but it would be nice if you could somewhere in the SEWorldPlugin settings disable/enable specific ores to spawn on asteroids.

SE uses AsteroidGenerators internally, which decide what ore is generated and how it is distributed. The plugin uses those to generate asteroids, since it has to be multiplayer compatible. I tried adding or modifying those generators some time ago, but they would always cause crashes on the client side, when the server syncs the asteroids to the client, due to them not knowing about the asteroid generator i added. The only way to add, what you are suggesting, would be to do exactly that, but as far as i know, is currently not possible for the plugin due to the multiplayer compatibility.
