Better Space Crate Loot

When you find "Shipping Crates" floating in an asteroid field, usually they contain just a few resource materials like iron, aluminum, etc. and all the crates contain the same thing.
This mod adds 40 new crates that contain shipments of more realistic types. Could be a weapon shipment, could be garbage... These new crates have a shipping manifest data slate which makes it seem more realistic. There are still some crates with simple resources, but the amounts are higher.
The maximum number of crates at a location has been changed from 4 to 5.
Each crate is now allowed to have different contents so it is actually worth flying around and checking each one.
Hazards: There is a 10% chance that a crate will have proximity mines nearby. Fly carefully! (This option was already in the game but it was disabled...)
Free Lanes: This mod is compatible with the update. Free Lanes adds other space containers that you can find at cruise mode POIs. This mod does not affect those as they are contained in a separate master file.
Compatibility: This mod does directly edit the formlist: "se_LootdropMaster_crateslist" The list contained a LOT of low value resources that I wanted to remove as a possibility. If you have another mod that adds to this list, load it after this mod.
