Simply Better Transmute
I am a consistent abuser of transmute mineral ore early game to grind smithing, but I hate having to throw silver ore on the ground every time to keep me from reducing my smithing level up gain (based on value, so silver amethyst and silver garnet ring are worth more than 2x gold ring). This changes the order of transmute to prefer iron ore over silver ore to transmute.
Bonus tweak: you now get marginally less xp for transmuting iron -> silver, but equivalently more for transmuting
silver -> gold. You probably, won't even notice in-game, but I was gaining too many alteration levels for my taste.
But what about when I want gold ore?
Simply dump the iron you don't want to transmute (which can be done all at once, instead of one at a time) and transmute away. The spell still performs the same functions, but with a different order of operations.
Install Details:
Install with a mod manager, or dump the .pex file into your scripts directory. This mod contains no plugin, so it will not affect your load order. I have not seen any mod dependent this script, so should be conflict-free. The source is included as well if you feel you need to tweak this mod.
