Ore Yield Presets (Not working as of Rocketry update)

Description
NOT working as of the rocketry update!

Rocketry update removed the custom world option which this mod relied on. Perhaps it'll be re-added in the future, but until then look for custom difficulty mods that change mining yield instead.


Restart your game twice after subscribing to this mod!
The game will download any subscribed mods on launch and for some reason this mod cannot load properly on the first go. If you don't see any presets in the custom world dropdowns please try restarting again without unsubscribing.

Adds ore yield multipliers to custom world options. It will not change vein size, mining difficulty or times.

Available presets: 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, Full stacks (50g)
The same presets with correct overrides are available for: Vulcan2, Venus, and Loulan.

Mod version
The mod version should always be the same as the current build of the game the mod was generated against. This does however not mean that it won't work with future versions.
I may also add an additional revision number when I've pushed an update before another game version comes out.
In other words the game version will be the first three numbers. The fourth, if present, represents a mod revision and has nothing to do with the game.

What makes this mod different from other similar mods?
From a gameplay perspective? Nothing really. I do however pledge to try to keep it up to date. The mod is automatically generated from the game files. This means that barring any substantial changes it'll be trivial to update the mod even if new mineables are added.

Yeah, when I posted that comment I made a micro mod that simply set the ore yields to what I want... and then they broke it by moving the ore yields onto the difficulty and I didn't feel like chasing that down at the time. Might look for difficulty mods, since the ore yields is really the only thing I want to alter. Really, it should just be a slider when you start a game world...

Thanks for the advice! By the way after a game restart (unless some other black magic happened since) it seems like the yields on already generated resources is working as intended.

I wish they kept the custom world settings from before though because they worked fine and didn't make a decent chunk of mods incompatible for not many reasons. There are a lot of mods from 2020-2023 which would add the settings with how they use to do it with a lot of comments complaining about them not working in the current version anymore - let alone support for non mars worlds as well.

Hopefully this is future proof and they don't reinvent the wheel again. At least it doesn't feel like the modding scene for this game is as active as most other steam games that thrive on modding, so when good modders take a break from the game a decent chunk of supported mods just drops every few updates.

The previous method used to control mining yields were removed, which is why all the old yield mods stopped working.

The devs however also made difficulties moddable, allowing you to add custom difficulties to the game via modding. Custom difficulties can have a mining yield parameter.

Search the workshop for custom difficulties that alter mining yields, I'd be surprised if there aren't loads already. These mods should also be much more future proof, game updates shouldn't (hopefully) break these.

There's also a couple of excellent guides posted on their official Discord on how to setup a custom difficulty mod with mining yields altered.

@Zulban it seems like most mining yield mods have been broken and not updated tbh. I know deep mining can give lots of resources but you need quite a bit to get that going. Unfortunate the devs broke these kinds of mods for (imo) little reason

Was thinking of getting back into Stationeers and it's a shame that they broke these kinds of mods. 3x ore yield felt it provided about the right ratio of going on mining trips to actually building stuff and this was one of the few mods that had that specific ore yield.

Hope this gets fixed soon :deadrat:

Out of the many I tried this one works.

Can confirm, still working! Thanks!

This mod cannot modify existing saves unfortunately, you'll have to create a new world.

It should be possible to edit an existing save with a text editor and a bit of XML know-how though.

it is possible to active it in a not new world ? if yes, how, where ?
