It's not a big mod, so when compressed, I guess it's just that small?

Edit: No, I simply forgot to actually put the src in the zip 'XD

Here we go again:

Thank you very much, sir. I have translate your mod into Chinese and updated it to this, https://www.fossic.org/thread-5646-1-1.html.
I hope we can cooperate next time.

Small but important update that fixes a few incorrect texts (such as the ruins tracker only ever showing 0%), but also a big glitch that basically made story points useless in certain situations. Here's the modified source file:

I see, thank you very much.

You changed the cap from 99% to 75%?

[Yunru]

Worse I'm afraid, that's the decay cap.

Now, by default at least, it'll decay down to 25% before looping back to 99%.

[speeder]

Why is that?

[Yunru]

Because I actually got time to plag with it and...

It was boring.
I found a single Widespread or Vast Ruins, plopped down a Tech-Mining industry, story-pointed it, and all I had to do was wait.

Reducing the produce to a more drawn out cycle encouraged continued exploration - finding more worlds with ruins so I could alleviate some of the downtime.

I have a question, when other mods have added special items, can they be obtained through this mod's tech mining?

Good design Yunru.  It has achieved exactly that.

It's exciting and fun yet, not good enough to ruin exploring.

[Serenitis]

This was a good change.
Has it also been incorporated into Yunru Industries?

[Yunru]

Has it also been incorporated into Yunru Industries?

Naturally. SBTM is actually just Industries with the extra industries removed, if you want a peek behind the curtain.

[Serenitis]

Thank you, much appreciated.

I have a question, when other mods have added special items, can they be obtained through this mod's tech mining?

No, because this mod overrides the old tech mining industry as far as I understand. But patching whatever mods you're using for compatibility takes 5 minutes. I use DIY planets and Industrial Evolution and have both set up to work with Slightly Better Tech-Mining

For each mod go to data/campaign/procgen/drop_groups for the mod you want to add and copy the entries with the group column "rare_tech" to a new set of rows in the same excel document. Then change the "groups" column for the duplicate entries to yunru_techmining

I find the rare_tech drop rates are about appropriate for the vanilla drop rates, but they can be adjusted up or down. Higher = more.

Don't know how I missed that one. To expand on what you said:
Items for said mods would still potentially appear, as the random parts of tech-mining were left untouched. However, they would probably appear at a reduced rate (especially compared to other colony items) without the quoted changes.

Can somebody explain easier how to add specials from other mods?

I tried to add those from IE but couldn't

I copied the rows of items from drop_groups.csv from IE folder then insert now rows in drop_group.csv in YM to put those in but the IE specials didn't showed up in techmining result. I did it With both excel and Notepad++

WHat did i do wrong?

Did you change the "groups" tag to "yunru_techmining"? Also, IE just had a big update so I don't know if my method works with the new version.

I probably shouldn't be posting my hack workarounds on someone's actual mod topic. My apologies Yunru if I am stepping on any toes, and thank you for the mod.

Thanks. It is all good now.

I am one of the unlucky stuck with3.0 for now.
