-This mod changes the frequency of geologic provinces so that basins and extended crusts are more common.

-It also alters the thickness of the rock layers to allow for thicker sedimentary layers to generate. This can help with finding ores that require sedimentary rocks to spawn in lower y levels like bituminous and anthracite coal. (It also means it is less likely for everything to be granite)

-Caves now also generate stalactites and stalagmites in larger numbers more frequently.

-A new kimberlite deposit has been made to spawn in peridotite so it can be accessed easier.

-As a bonus, blue clay is also a bit more frequent

 

It is compatible with Geology Additions and I think the extra rocks go perfectly with this mod!

 

Enjoy!

is this compatible with worldgen mods like terra prety?

Mobius yes it is compatible!

💬 Mobius, May 29th at 8:36 PM

Looking good! Do you know if it is compatible with Rock Strata Variety? Since that mod is another that is compatible with Geology Additions

metasynthie I assume it is compatible.

chisps Whoops, I must've left that in on accident. It was a tweak for the personal version I play with because I do not like conglomerate rock that much. I'll make a new version without it. I made stalactites and stalagmites more common by increasing the chance for them to generate as well as the amount that generates.

Happy to see more people making mods for the wonderful geology in this game! Question, what is the reasoning for changing game:worldproperties/block/rock.json/variants/3/Weight to 25? And how does it accomplish making stalactites and stalagmites more common?

Thank you for this! The sedimentary layers needed some love.
Given that you're affecting one ore (kimberlite) do you know if this mod is compatible with Interesting Ore Gen?

Bravo, I've been trying to figure out how to do this for 3 years! Excellent work.
