Underground minimap fog of war

i actually like the caves tbh but i dislike the fact that what it effectively does is eat ore nodes thatcould've been and also presents a hazard trying to find aforementioned ore nodes by smaccing face against the wall

i like sevenless's instances idea the most

As they are right now you never really get to dig some proper tunnels. You just poke cave walls forever, prospect tunneling is basically wasting your time. I know it's bottable, but hard work digging out something that is your achievement was kind of a neat thing for mining that the frequency of caves has killed off.

I honestly strongly disagree with this. Straight tunneling for hours on end looking for nodes is just really awful tbh. Of all the changes to mining since legacy, i think the only one i actually like is the addition of caves.

Miners before steam engines would spend a whole life making a tunnel to what they thought was a vein of ore. Some were... strangely successful at it.

Wait, what's the dream for?

I like deeper cave systems because it makes it easy to find more metal on the next level.
I also think the fog of war could be smaller than it currently is.

if your dream is strong enough the cave louse don't engulf you

it wasn't a literal dream but a figurative one

Would be nice, question is if it wouldn't need a massive change to how the server delivers maps...
