Map gen settings autoplace controls

[levithanh428]

Is it possible to lower the frequency of ores, enemy bases, etc lower than 17%? I love big huge enemy bases but even at the lowest setting they overlap a lot. Can I make then half as frequent somehow (mod, console command, etc)? Can I use a number instead of a slider somehow?

I don't know if you can do it after the game is launched, but using commands to generate the map like for a headless server is possible according to https://wiki.factorio.com/Command_line_parameters you have a" Creating a map from custom settings", If you use the last 2 commands on the page it creates a map and a preview of this map, ( and also the gen-settings.json i think).

In the gen-settings, there is a frequency, for ore that is 1 by default, and 1/2 correspond to very low, so any number between those shoud do. I haven't used this extensively i was shown it.
