Changing mix of special resources

can you adjust the mix of appearance of different special resources? It seems like Duranium is a lot more common than the others and I'm trying to figure out how to change that.

eliminate asteroid fields and durantium will not appear

I get that Durantium only appears in asteroids and that Elerium only occurs in gas clouds. That said, the odds of Durantium appearing in a given asteroid belt seem higher than of Elerium appearing in a given gas cloud. I've been looking for the the file where those odds are set. Couldn't find it so far

The file you need in order to change resource probability is MapSetupDefs.xml. :)

+1 Agree that durantium shows up way too frequency. The AI loves when I trade him lots of my extra durantium.
