The Underground city

Postby farmchamp » Thu Aug 27, 2009 4:32 am

1. Can you build things in a mine, such as cabins, containers, ect?
2. Can you farm in mines? Probably not.
3. Can you make mines inside mines?
4. Any reason you couldn't make an underground city?

I want to make one after the reset, so yea. Probably easier with more trees.

1: Yes, though in my opinion that should change to only fires, cheese racks, and possibly some containers.
2: No
3: Until the map reset. After the map reset you'll have to build mines on geological hot spots.
4: People back in the day didn't build underground cities, also, it's dark underground.

Your opinion is reflective of our intentions. It will be that way after the map reset.

I think a form of hermit cave should be buildable. Suitable for only one person. Would have to be deep in the wilderness.

No Cappadocia, then? Ah, well.
Is the decay rate inside of a mine going to be the same as above ground?

I stand corrected, though I'm not quite sure if those are in the correct time period. (the dates they were mentioning in the second article seemed pre-this game.)

Uh, why would the ability to build in caves go away because this game is after they had done it before?
