Better mine holes

Post by DatOneGuy »

You should be able to build a mine hole on the 'land' made from the first to go down another level and it should have a different graphic that blends nicely to allow you to easily move three dimensionally.


Get on it guys I want my 3D house to be done.

Speaking of mine holes, the wiki states they must be built on paved terrain. This isn't so.

Also, here's an interesting trick: build one right up against the northern/western corner of a palisade. As close as you can.

Now, once you've got it built, go down the ladder, then come back up. Because the hole always drops you on the west side, you'll get stuck in the palisade wall.

Granted, it's a great defense against intrusions (not sure if it'd work with multiple intruders coming out), but I suspect this is not intended.

reminds me of the end of w3. I had given xweetok a tin mine and he built the wall too close and couldn't use it. XD

Feel free to change it. During w4, you had to start it on paved land.

I've been promoting this for months in "How Do I?" I'm glad someone else has figured it out and likes it. :) I never tried going up the ladder when the gate was closed, so I wasn't sure what happened. I'll make sure to add this to my instructions over there.
