Is it possible that it is harder to find surf stones in the game ?

Does anyone know?

WTF :(

Server parameters  spawn.min_rate, spawn.min_density, spawn.max_rate, spawn.max_density   will  affect the quantity of nodes, barrels, etc.  but dont think there is something just for sulfur nodes.

Thanks for the reply but I just need for sulfur nodes. Too bad umod don't have a plugin for a thing like this.

You could delete some of them as they spawn.

The plugin "EntityReducer" can be used to limit all ore spawns, but not specific to sulfur .
Usualy, server use a gather control plugin to reduce or increase the amount of resource available.
It does not change the amount of nodes, but change the amount gathered for each nodes.

I just started a project to try and limit ore spawning (per ore). It can't increase spawns, just limit them (by canceling/removing ores as they spawn depending on your wanted spawn-percentage).

Merged post

First attempt (pls don't kill me).

using Oxide.Core;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace Oxide.Plugins
{
    [Info("PrefabLimiter", "HoverCatz", "1.0.0")]
    class PrefabLimiter : RustPlugin

            spawnChances = Interface.Oxide.DataFileSystem.ReadObject<Dictionary<string, int>>("PrefabLimiter") ?? spawnChances;

            if (spawnChances == null)
                spawnChances = new Dictionary<string, int>();

            if (spawnChances.Count <= 0)
                AddDefaultConfig();

            Interface.Oxide.DataFileSystem.WriteObject("PrefabLimiter", spawnChances);

            Puts($"PrefabLimiter successfully initialized. Loaded {spawnChances.Count} config values.");
        }

        private void AddDefaultConfig()

            spawnChances.Add("assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/ores/metal-ore.prefab", 100);       // 100% chance to spawn
            spawnChances.Add("assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/ores/stone-ore.prefab", 100);       // 100% chance to spawn

            spawnChances.Add("assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/ores_snow/metal-ore.prefab", 100);  // 100% chance to spawn

            spawnChances.Add("assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/ores_snow/sulfur-ore.prefab", 100); // 100% chance to spawn

            // Add more prefabs here if you want

        void Unload()
        {
            Interface.Oxide.DataFileSystem.WriteObject("PrefabLimiter", spawnChances);
        }

        [ConsoleCommand("prefabLimiterReload")]
        void ReloadConfig(ConsoleSystem.Arg _)
        {
            /* Reload config */

            spawnChances = Interface.Oxide.DataFileSystem.ReadObject<Dictionary<string, int>>("PrefabLimiter") ?? spawnChances;

            if (spawnChances == null)
                spawnChances = new Dictionary<string, int>();

            if (spawnChances.Count <= 0)
                AddDefaultConfig();

            Interface.Oxide.DataFileSystem.WriteObject("PrefabLimiter", spawnChances);

            Puts($"PrefabLimiter successfully reloaded {spawnChances.Count} config values.");
        }

        void OnEntitySpawned(BaseNetworkable entity)
        {

            int intChance;
            string name = entity.name;

            if (!spawnChances.TryGetValue(name, out intChance))
                return; // Doesn't exist in our list? 100% chance to spawn

            if (intChance == 100)
                return; // 100% chance, spawn.
            else
            if (intChance == 0)
            {
                entity.AdminKill(); // Destroy the Prefab! No chance check.
                return;
            }

            float fChance = intChance / 100f;
            float rnd = UnityEngine.Random.value;

            if (rnd > fChance)
                entity.AdminKill(); // Destroy the Prefab!

        }

    }
}

I may be wrong , but if I recall correctly metal nodes left untouched for I believe 30mins turn into sulfur nodes automatically.

Many maps are built with the prefab Random Node, so it may be difficult to stop sulfur nodes respawning without custom map.

You can use these plugins .. just try a bit.

Where do you see solution for less spawn only sulfur ore?
