Miner Credo perk suggestion

[Matheusmk]

Replace the "Chance to localize caveins" perk with:

When opening natural cave galleries, every tile consumed by it has a chance of leaving a boulder of the tile's corresponding ore/stone.

This way natural cave galleries would be less frustrating. Also please make them spawn cavedust so it doesn't break the minesweep mechanic, come on.

myeah, would be cool

"Natural Cave Gallery" is conceptually cool but it's too often ruined by the problems explained in OP. Worst case, it deletes bunch of ore (or other valuable rock) and leaves behind an useless tunnel due to uncertain nature of the cave-in status.

sometimes its nice to get long tunnels when explore mining
having boulders spawn on that gallery would feel horrible

Do you guys not use mine supports?

I'm an "exploratory snake mining enjoyer" - but if you mine with supports, then the "natural cave gallery" is just plain redundant. And still can potentially delete some rocks that you actually wanted.

Natural cave galery sucks. +when it opens at tiles that are mined around, ready for mining song - worst thing ever.

+1 to make it having galleries have benefits, could also add chances of spawning maybe boreworm dungeon (on lower levels) on those tiles.
