Mining

[kemil88]

Hello everyone, I found a Mine where all the walls are light gray, I did mine a lot inside of it but I just found pebbles boulder, and the minimap shows 4 big light gray carved rocks images, does it mean that no matter how much I mine, I will always find pebbles boulders? So, I have to search for another Metal Node?

I think it just means you've been unlucky so far, each mine will have all the metals ores in it. I don't believe Ore shows up on the minimap at all.

Unlucky enought to find a bat when normal mining who killed me like 3 or more times because I didn't know that I had to unequip it..

I'd recommend before clearing big areas, just mine one deep line in each wall, 10 tiles long maybe. If the 4 lines finds nothing I usually mine parallel lines on each side, maybe 2 or 3 tiles apart. Its great to avoid cave in while youre searching veins. Once you find a vein you can put a support in place and expand.

I hit my iron vein after 15 tiles straight forward; and I got KO 8 times from my first bat encounter.
