Ω Extended Tech Tree Mod – Platinum Addon
Addon for Extended Tech Tree Mod. Spawns additional mineable megaroids containing iron, copper and trace amounts of platinum.
A few of the mineable megaroids added by this mod will have silver or sometimes even gold replacing either the copper or the iron, but the ones with gold and platinum will be extremely rare. All the extra asteroids will spawn in asteroid fields and in the asteroid belt.
Platinum is a new resource from the Extended Tech Tree Mod, which is why these asteroids need Extended Tech Tree Mod enabled for this mod. Mineable Megaroids is not required for this mod to function, but this mod is designed to be used with it.
Platinum is one of the new high-tech resources which is only available from mid-game (start systems of tier 8-10 and higher).
It’s safe to enable and disable this add-on mod during your current playthrough, but it needs Extended Tech Tree Mod enabled to function properly as this is not a standalone mod.

Platinum is meant to be a mid-game resource and thus these mineable megaroids will start spawning from tier 8-10 systems and higher (with a further increase from tier 10-12 systems). Asteroids with platinum are not meant to spawn in early game and this mod will not have any influence on the amount of platinum available in early game.
In addition I also want to add that the total number of asteroids spawned by this mod will be very low (like max 2 in every asteroid belt and sometimes 1 in an asteroid field). This is intentional as currently not many parts in Extended Tech Tree Mod require platinum. This amount is likely to get changed one I start adding more parts to ETTM which require platinum to be build.

With this mod enabled, Extended Tech Tree Mod will spawn more asteroids containing trace amounts of platinum. This add-on mod can be used by anybody who likes Mineable Megaroids, but wants some more platinum containing asteroids to spawn.
