Hi, thought I would put this script up here and see if it was useful. This perhaps should be moved to a user page or something, but I am not certain: feel free to suggest changes, moves, or a more appropriate way to present this. -- Seth Fogarty
- Hi, I thought the whole point of mineshafts was to optimize the dig load on exploratory mining. Stitching them together doubles the amount of dug stone, doesn't it? 22% doesn't look so optimal. --Aykavil 09:51, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Perhaps the example is confusing because it is only 3 layers? You can have as many layers as you like in the stitching.. just replicate the middle. More formally, you have to dig to one end or the other of a mineshaft. The traditional way is, I assume, to have a top-level grid that connects all the mineshafts. Stitching involves no more dug stone than the traditional method, you just alternate if the top-level or bottom-level gets the digging. Sfogarty 08:07, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
