Iron Asteroids

Description
Small modification to asteroid oregen to add Iron to it since... well... Have you ever heard anyone talking about asteroid mining say 'oh yeah, lots of copper in a asteroid'?

Iron is added in at a higher spawn rate compared to copper at .75 (Vanilla spawn rate in asteroids is .65) while copper gets knocked down slightly to .60. Silver and gold remain the same.

FU adds their own oregen to asteroids, so this isn't compatible.

Does this work okay with Frack'n Universe (FU)?

(This was asked earlier, but nobody ever replied...)

This is the good stuff. When ya need to burn through iron for whatever reason, this saves ya time.

I actually love this mod. Make more :D

can you make a mod that adds Crystal Erchius Fuel and Core Fragment to asteroids???

I was looking for something like this -- much more realistic. I'm always short of iron ore for some reason and it makes perfect sense in-universe to go mine some from asteroids when it is needed. Personally I would have decreased copper/silver/gold by more, but it's your mod. Much appreciated.

Can you make other ores included? Also THANK YOU for this mod!

Excellent! Now if only I could get Tungsten asteroids (and maybe even durasteel if there's adequate danger), I'd be in heaven.

THANK YOU
Finally! These ironless Asteroids have reaaaaally been bugging me! *thumbs up*

Just starting out on the game, is this compatible and does this affect Frackin Universe asteroid at all?
