====== Miner’s Hut ====== The Miner’s Hut allows your colony to automatically mine underground resources, providing ores, stone, and other materials. ==== Overview ==== The Miner digs mine shafts and branch tunnels beneath the hut, collecting ores, stone, gravel, and other underground items. The Miner delivers resources to the Warehouse or fulfills requests from other workers. Upgrading the hut increases mining speed, unlocks more shaft levels, and enables special mining patterns or vein mining (with research). ^ Hut Level ^ Mining Speed ^ Shaft Levels Unlocked ^ | 1 | Basic | 1 | | 2 | Faster | 2 | | 3 | Fast | 3 | | 4 | Very Fast | 4 | | 5 | Fastest | 5 | *Higher levels increase mining efficiency, depth, and unlock features like advanced mining patterns or support for modded ores (with research).* ==== Interface ==== ====== Main Tab ====== * **Header** * Building name & level * Rename (✎) tool * Assigned worker display * **Controls** * Manage Workers (manual or automatic via Town Hall or hut) * Recall Worker * Build Options (create/upgrade/repair) * **Request System** * Pickup Priority (1–10 or disable Courier visits) * Request Pickup Now * **Footer** * Info button (?) * Inventory button (hut storage & racks) * Chest icon (view stored items, with highlight tooltip) ====== Shaft List Tab ====== * View and manage active mine shafts and tunnels * Assign new shaft locations or enable special mining patterns ====== Minimum Stock Tab ====== * Set minimum amounts of ores, stone, or other materials to keep in stock ====== Settings Tab ====== * Toggle mining patterns, support for vein mining, or depth priorities
