minehole onto lvl1 village or pclaim

[smileyguy4you]

If I remember correctly it used to be that a minehole couldnt be built above a personal claim or village claim (if everything was mined out).

My question is, is that still true, if there is a village on a large cave area on lvl 1 but no claims/walls above it, can someone put a minehole down into the center of the level one village or does it act like it used to, saying something like that area is blocked?

is that still true

It was never true. What was and still is true is that you can't build a minehole above an area that is physically obstructed.

what is considered physically obstructed?

cave tiles that are claimed physically obstructing? mined out tiles that are claimed? or do i really need to build structures etc in the whole area to prevent mineholes even when claimed? I swear mined out areas in old haven that were claimed wouldnt let mineholes be put down on em...maybe im crazy...probably

If you put signposts in the area then you can't put a minehole down.

yes or stockpiles or buildings etc i get that, my question was and still is do i really haveto either claim and wall the land above or clutter my whole village with some object to prevent mineholes?

r clutter my whole village with some object to prevent mineholes?

To truly prevent mining down, this. Do note the size of the minehole and that you only need to block a portion of one tile to prevent someone mining down.
