**To widen a tunnel, the tile you mine must only be connected to ONE open tunnel only
** Mine doors can be placed on tunnel entrances that are 1 tile or wider, except on PvP servers. Note that you will need more than one mine door for wider entrances!
* Mine Entrances cannot have a reinforced cave floor. So, when you are tunneling an entrance from the outside and receive the message, {{event|inline|The ground sounds strangely hollow and brittle. You have to abandon the mining operation.}}, you most likely have a reinforced floor inside the tunnel you are trying to open. Enter the mine from another angle and remove the reinforced floor.
== Tunnel excavation ==
== Mining resources==
[[Ore]] is produced by mining metal ore [[vein]]s found inside of a mine. [[Marble]], [[slate]], [[rock salt vein|rock salt]], and [[sandstone vein|sandstone]] veins produce shards. A [[Rock salt]] tile has about the same amount of shards as a regular rock tile, approximately 50 shards.
*When an ore or shard vein is depleted a tunnel is created. However, a vein can take several thousand actions to deplete, so it is advised to mine around ore and shard veins for tunneling purposes.
== Mining floors and ceiling ==
== Leveling ==
Standing on a flat cave tile will permit the leveling of an adjacent tile so that it will be at the same height. To see if a tile is flat, activate a pickaxe and hover over the tile(as long as you have at least 15 mining skill).
Activate a pickaxe and '''right click''' the cave floor tile, select '''Mining''' > '''Level'''.
:Slope reduction: {{event|inline|You mine some stone shards.}}
:No reduction: {{event|inline|You chip away at the rock.}}

* You can mine downward until you reach 25 dirts below the [[water]] table.
* It is not possible to have one tunnel pass under or over another without forming a vertical shaft. Each tile is essentially a pillar, so if two tunnels cross at different elevations they create a shaft going from the upper tunnel to the lower tunnel.
==PVP Servers==
* Maximum slope for surface mining is limited to your 1x mining skill on [[Defiance]] and [[Epic]] servers and capped at 60 slope.
* There is a minimum of 3 tiles required between mine doors on all PVP servers.
