Mine


The Mine is where you can hire a Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner Miner to work the mine, or a Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier Quarrier to work the Quarry . If you hire a Quarrier, there will be no Miner at this Mine.

At the Mine, the Miner will mine for ores and materials. Once they are hired, the Miner will first create a shaft downward to a specific depth depending on the level of the Mine. Once the main shaft is completed, the Miner will then branch out.

While mining, sometimes the Miner will get lucky and get an ore block instead of a basic stone block. The chance of getting "Lucky Ores" is set in the config.

Note: Placing the Mine hut below the maximum Y level it can mine will cause the Miner not work and complain the hut needs to be upgraded. To avoid this error, place the hut at least 4 blocks above the maximum depth for the hut level (above Y=54 for 1.16 or Y=44 for 1.18 level 1). If you want your mine to be lower, you will need to upgrade it before the miner will work.
