Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a new mine claim!
Digging your mine
- Get a spade and start to dig.
- Eventually you will dig enough to create an entrance to the start of your mine
- Once inside your mine you have several options.
- You can dig to reinforce the area.
- You can dig {direction} to expand your mine.
Need to Know Information
These mechanics apply only to player created mines.
- Your first room will never collapse, but will not hold any mineable ore.
- Any room beyond your entrance will eventually collapse if it is not maintained by digging in that area. The more you dig in an area, the better it will be maintained.
- You will be able to tell when an area is dangerously close to collapsing by looking at the area.
- If a room collapses, it will no longer exist.
- If you are caught in the room during a major collapse, there is no escape, you will die.
- Friends can help you dig in an area, and can mine with you, but cannot help you expand the mine in a direction. That responsibility is in the hands of the mine owner.
- Any room beyond your entrance has a chance for ore and gem veins.
- With each room you add to the mine, the more unstable the area becomes with a higher chance for collapses and gas.
- With each collapse, the area degrades slightly, and will need to be repaired by using dig, or risk total collapse.
- With each room you add to the mine, you have a chance for more rare materials.
- All materials are subject to the same rarity checks as any other mine when determining if they can be found in your mine.
- Traders who are trained in Mining Mastery will find they are able to expand and maintain their mines with greater ease.
- A word of caution to the casual miner:
Maintaining your own mine is not an easy task, and can be quite time consuming. This system is designed to be very challenging, and somewhat time demanding but very rewarding as well.
