Hello, I can not find a Lead ore on my map.
I do not want to start a new map again. Can I somehow make Lead Ore spam?
As an attachment my savegame, maybe it helps
Thx

Try using this command: /c game.regenerate_entity("lead-ore")
it will disable achievements, but should force lead to spawn again.

if you have all bob's mods installed, it is likely that lead did spawn on your map, just you haven't found it yet. The ore generation mechanics in use are the 0.16 and older ones, and that doesn't guarantee that you'll have the ore in the starting area.

Hello bobingabout,
After your message, I tried to explore the map extensively. I have now found Lead Ore Although very far, but I have it )))
Thank you!

P.S: maybe it would be a "small bug" because you should change if you can. Because you need lead ore very early, even before the trains.

I am looking into it, the easy way would be with a slight change to the base game, which I believe may be in 0.17.5. But that would limit the mod to be 0.17.5+ as a minimum (which I don't actually have myself yet due to the auto-update issues)

Lead is also almost impossible to see against dark terrain or in the fog of war (since that darkens everything). So there may well be some closer that you just missed when looking for it. RSO generates it in the starting area as well, for an option.
