Elephant Veins

A mod that modifies ore generation to replace the small sporadic ore pockets with sparse, gigantic ore veins.

The size, density, and frequency of ore veins are configurable in the settings menu.

Currently compatible with the following games:

• Minetest Game - https://content.minetest.net/packages/Minetest/minetest_game
• Mineclonia - https://content.minetest.net/packages/ryvnf/mineclonia

It should theoretically work with VoxeLibre (https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/mineclone2) too, but it only seems to generate iron and copper in the overworld.

When playing with Mineclonia, I recommend using the following settings instead of the defaults:

• Vein scarcity multiplier - 350.
• Vein ore count multiplier - 1000.
• Vein size multiplier - 10.

API

There is an API for other mods to register their ores with Elephant Veins, see src/api.lua in the source repository for details.
