As I understand it, there is a chance when mining for a collapse to trigger even though a support is within range. Your Mines and Mountains level reduced the chance that this will happen.

When mining, it is a very good idea to keep materials for emergency supports ready in case this happens.

Do emergency supports actually work? I had a cave in one time and thought I had supplies nearby but didn't, ran around the town trying to find the materials, made nails, ran back, heroically ran right under the cave-in to build the support with seconds to spare but it still collapsed after it was built. Do you have to do it within X seconds after it starts?

They work, works better if you keep the materials in the mine itself. Less time wasted.

What happens if you are caught under a cave-in? I am not heroic enough to try

Huh, then must either be a period right before the cave-in where it's too late or a bug where you can't fix it after leaving the mine.

The mine support needs to be placed exactly (fixed to the grid) on the tile warning for cave in. Placing it anywhere near won't prevent an already occurring cave-in.

Ahh, yeah that was it, thanks.

Question about mining: Did i need build mine support immediatelly? Before i have mined at all?

No. First layer is safe. Dunno if 2nd or 3rd are.
