Does this work with the deep ores mod as well, if so what is the load order requirement?

Oh, are you talking about a server plugin?

In that case, sure sounds interesting but I have no idea what that would entail. I have no experience with server plugins

That certainly sounds interesting. Though I don't know exactly what you mean. Can you clarify?

Do you mean adding a pluggable interface into the python script? Certainly it will need refactoring in that direction if more oremap editing methods are added. I'm not sure that a full "plugin" system is warranted just yet. But decoupling the responsibilities in the code is definitely a good idea if more ore removal methods are introduced.

hey, would you be interested in a possible integration of your script with an ore customization plugin to allow for the editing of the oremaps (the mod currently modifies the available ores in the planet file)

Please see the README on GitHub. I have just added a short section on how to run the manipulator script. If you are familiar with modding SE in general then this is the only bit that is different to normal. Otherwise, you're going to struggle! Everybody does at first because the game has very little documentation. The good folks over on the Keen Software Discord server are usually pretty friendly to new modders.

I'm not sure if you're asking for permission or advice on how to do it.

If you're asking for permission then by all means - go for it.

If you are asking for advice on how to do it, there are several different possible answers depending on your level of comfort with modding etc.

Do you mean a custom planet? Or a different planet downloaded from the Workshop?

If so, then no, out of the box this mod will not work with newly added planets.

A lot of the mod is using the "XML override" method of modifying the base game, which does not automatically extend to new planets/blueprints/etc. Some of this mod uses a better C# code-based approach which would be capable of what you ask, potentially. At some point I will convert the mod to be all C# for better flexibility.

What world are you trying to apply this to?
