Bigger Asteroid Variants

Description
This modification adds 5 new asteroid sector types that can be found in your galaxy:
- Normal resource-rich asteroid sector
- Large asteroid sector
- Large resource-rich asteroid sector
- Huge asteroid sector
- Huge resource-rich asteroid sector


This mod does not require a new game. It can be used as long as there are never visited sectors left in your galaxy, as it just adds those asteroid field types to the pool of asteroid sector types to be generated.

Sectors are assigned a weight that determines the probability of finding them in your galaxy.
The normal asteroid sector has a weight of 300, which is fairly common, and these are marked as hidden mass signatures.
The odds and probabilities are set in relation to the normal asteroid sectors as follows:

- Normal rich asteroid sector: weight of 150, which is 2x rarer
- Large asteroid sector: weight of 125, which is 2.4x rarer
- Large rich asteroid sector: weight of 37.5, which is about 8x rarer
- Huge asteroid sector: weight of 75, which is 4x rarer
- Huge rich asteroid sector: weight of 33.75, which is 8.8x rarer


All asteroids in a rich sector variant have an 80% chance of containing resources
All rich sectors have an increased chance of containing larger multiblock resource asteroids


If anything breaks, or this mod stops working due to an update or a new addon. Please let me know, as im currently not actively playing Avorion.
I will look into the changes and if i have the time, i will update this mod.

is there any way i can easy tell if im in one of ur sectors?

Honestly, since you are using main game logic, might as well set it to 2.*
The game would need a major version update to mess with asteroid field generation. At least imo.

Please update max version to 2.4.* instead of including the minor version number. Save yourself and your subscribers the headache lol

Found one that had 3.7mil resources in one asteroid.
Instant boner.

If I'm seeing this correctly, it's like oops all resources. So many resources.

Well, so far a sector with them has not respawned anything. Might just be a sector that can't respawn anything though.

I cant assure an answer to you question, but as my Mod uses the internal Methods to generate the asteroids, any respawning Mod might work fine with those generated asteroids.
