: 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. --[[User:Aykavil|Aykavil]] 09:51, 24 June 2009 (UTC) | : Hi, I thought the whole point of mineshafts was to optimize the dig load on [[exploratory mining]].

:: 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.
