-I think I have noticed a speed difference when using steel picks over coppers ones. Although it may have just been because of a different map due to stone type/fps/miner stats. Not sure how to test this accurately. [[User:Jikor|Jikor]] 04:54, 10 January 2008 (EST)

-:Maybe just make two absolutely unskilled miners with different picks, and order them to mine two parallel hallways? If they won't be distracted, it'll be a perfect speed comparer for miners $) --[[User:Dorten|Dorten]] 05:06, 10 January 2008 (EST)
-::Obviously you'll want to ensure that two 'identical' runs of stone are isolated from each other. The runs of stone should be quite long indeed, and I would recommend a number ultimately divisible by 100 or more. I would also avoid having any two designated tiles accessible at the same time (diagonal corners). Reveal and walling should make this rather easy to test. And paired with single-stepping, it should be clear once and for all if there's a difference. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 22:33, 10 January 2008 (EST)
