Added link to Prospecting and Writs
To find iron activate your pickaxe, right click on a tile that says "rock" and choose "prospect" from the "mining" submenmu, finding iron is very difficult and you may have to search through hundreds of rock tiles before you manage to find an iron mine - its basicly complete luck. <br>
[[Prospecting ]] for Iron. When you prospect a rock tile it show all Ore veins within a 7x7 area, you can use this to approximate the location of the ever elusive Iron Vien. Once you get the message there is Iron nearby you can start to tunnel for it. The first rock tile will break after mining it approx 25 times, all further tiles inside the cave take around 50. After your two tiles in you can start mining at different angles, well up or down anyway. Once you recieve the message 'the wall will break soon' start mining up, mining down or mining(will go level) and your cave will go up, down or level. There are many methods of building a cave, one of the most thurough method thorough methods is to make your main shaft about 10 tiles long, then mine side shafts every other tile going in both directions.<br>
Well, when you have found your precious Iron vein, it's time to start mining it to get to the ore, the "mine" options is also found in the "mining" submenu. Each mining action will deliver 20kg ore. Now you want to get to the iron inside the rock of these ores so you will have to smelt them, you do this by getting yourself another of those fancy logs and with your axe "create" a [[kindling]] from it, once you have this little nifty piece of wood you select your steel and flint, right click on the kindling and create a [[campfire]] with it (its under the container submenu). Now that you have your campfire its time to get smelting! Right click on your campfire and "open" it, drag the ore from your inventory to the campfires inventory. Next theres waiting - lots of it. MAKE SURE TO FEED THE FIRE WITH WOOD, OTHERWISE THE FLAMES WILL GO OUT AND YOU WILL HAVE TO START THE SMELTING PROCESS OVER FROM SCRATCH! I suggest you mine more ore while you do this but of course if you want to idle you can do that too. Right click on the ore and examine it to check how hot it is, once it reaches "glowing hot" you are very close to get your [[Iron Lump]]. When the ore has smelted it is replaced by a 1kg [[Iron Lump]] in the campfire, you will need atleast 2kg for the next step.
== Managing your Writ/Securing your Home ==
A [[Writ of Ownership|Writ]] will appear in your [[inventory ]] the moment you click 'Finalize Building' (They cannot be dropped, even if you die, but can be traded). Writs are used to control who has access to your home/building, lock and unlock doors, and rename the building. Add other players to your friends list, and they will appear on your Writ management screen. To allow access, simply select them as guests. :)<br>Writ's Writs also act as keys for any [[Door Lock|Door]]s on your home/building.
