Ore Generation Chance

Would be nice to make ores rarer than what you already can now, looks like making the amount of veins that generate in a chunk be 1 is just as rare as diamond 

https://imgur.com/dQLoqlW Ore generation both diamond and my ore at 1 group per chunk 6 ores per group.

If setting the amount per chunk to let's say 0,5 would make it appear every other chunk in a row would make it rarer, or be able to set a chance of it generating on chunks, so 25% would make it ever more difficult to find, I just think the minimum being 1 is not enough, and I would like to be able to find a vein of 6 of them at least.

If you make a structure for the ore block you can make it spawn as much or little as you like, however the structure will either have to be made of the six blocks (you can make several structures for different shaped veins if you want), or you will have to run a procedure on structure generation that has a chance of placing another ore block next to the original (be very careful of this as it can spiral out of control if the value is too high).

The only problem is I need to make it generate like an ore, I made it so 250.000 generate every one million chunks and the world continued generating for eternity, welp... even with 100.000 which would be too low for it

What do you mean? Is the structure crashing the game, and if so, is it using a spreading procedure?

I simply made a structure of 6 ores, https://imgur.com/a/N7euQf3 it has spawn probability 100,000 but that is low compared to how much it should have and still this makes the world generator continue for eternity without crashing the game.

I figured out it works even if I make it 800.000 but If I have optifine it does the same error of loading forever without crashing, which sucks, without optifine my games lags

The spawn probability shouldn't be a problem, I have made structures with much higher chance. I think "underground" is only for nether type dimensions, try changing this.

Whoops, I didn't see your latest post. You  could still try the change and see if it helps with Optifine though.
