b Crash on deep ore spawn

Hello,

Tonight I randomly started getting the following error.

"Notice
Error while running event vtk-deep-core-mining::on_resourceDepleted (ID 25) vtk-deep-core-mining/control.lua:47:bad argument #2 to 'random' (interval is empty)"

After looking at line 46/47 (see below), I was able to track down what I believe the problem is.

Somehow my settings had a max of 10,000 but a min of 10,001. I'm wondering if there is an exception when the min>max. Once I set it to min:10,000 max 11,000 (like a normal person, lol), the issue seems to have been resolved and I have not yet experienced the same error/crash.

Hope this helps.

control.lua:46-47
"
if number == 1 and entitiesCount == 0 then
oreamount = math.random(minrichness, maxrichness)
"

Hello,

Nice catch, indeed having a bigger min than max will be a problem. I'll try to improve error handeling on this for next version, thanks for the report!
