Mine Hole

[[Category:Buildings]]

Available metals are: [[Bar of Gold|Gold]], [[Bar of Silver|Silver]], [[Bar of Cast Iron|Iron]], [[Bar of Copper|Copper]] and [[Bar of Tin|Tin]].

==How to Acquire==

A mine hole requires a 3x3 area to be built (needs to be paved if on surface).

A mine hole may be built anywhere (except on water). In order to place a mine hole near available [[Ore|ore]], one should [[Rustroot Extract|prospect]] the area first, however, it is not necessary. Prospecting requires [[Rustroot Extract]] to determine the location of an ore vein. If you don't have access to rustroot, building a mine may just take more underground labour before it digs up any ore.

When a minehole is built, it will create a square 7x7 area of free space in the layer below it. Mind that you shouldn't place a minehole directly over an ore vein, as it will destroy some of it clearing space for the ladder.

==Notes==

*See [[Mining]] page if you want to know how to mine.
*According to jorb: ''The minehole entrance (ladder) is a support with the same radius as a normal wooden support.''
This means you can mine some tiles safely without having to build a support, thereby allowing to actually get some metal to construct one, if your mine hole was built over an ore node.
*Mines can now be built everywhere, but it's not guaranteed there will be ore. Use [[Rustroot Extract]] to prospect for ore nodes and construct mineholes over them to have instant access to metal.
*Since mine holes can be quite expensive early on it's usually a good idea to make sure there will be metals in the mine before you construct the mine hole.

A mine hole built inside your compound should be walled off with a [[Palisade]] or [[Brickwall]] as it is possible for raiders to tunnel into a mined area from elsewhere and gain entrance to a village or compound through an unsecured mine. It also may be a good idea NOT to store your metal that you smelt in the Mine Hole, since anyone can tunnel in and steal it, although it is unlikely and this can be avoided quite easily.

If you want to get the maximum amount of metal from your node, build the minehole away from the node and mine towards it; this prevents the minehole's area from deleting a part of the vein, saving you up to 49 tiles of ore.

Rustroot Extract

}}
{{GM|$Craft|$Processing & Materials|Rustroot $Extract}}
[[Category:Liquids]]

Rustroot extract is used to prospect for Metal Ores. The [[Quality|Vitality]] of the extract determines the detection range when prospecting. 

Quoting [http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=40714#p560788 Sevenless]: ''Using Vitality 10 extract I found out the range on the arrow to be roughly 5 tiles away. Vitality 30 extract however had a detection range of 50 tiles. Both Essence and Substance appeared to have no effect on it.
Prospecting always tells you what type of stone/ore is on the tile one layer below you.''

==How to Acquire==

In order to craft rustroot extract you need an empty [[Jar]], a container filled with at least 0.4 liters of [[Water]] and [[Rustroot]] in your inventory.

==Quality==

The quality of the rustroot extract depends on the quality of the used rustroot and water.

<math>\operatorname{Q_{rustrootextract}} = \frac{ Q_{rustroot} + Q_{water} }{2}</math>

Columns hold up the mine's ceiling to prevent cave-ins. Stone columns have a slightly larger radius (11 tiles) than [[Mine Support]]s (9 tiles) and are generally more convenient to build in a mine due to being built with stones. 
'''Note:''' Mined tiles will still show dust animation (see [[Mining]] page) when under the radius of the support, to warn of cave-in tiles, but caveins won't occur under support.

{| class="wikitable"
|+Quoted from Loftar
|<SuperDaddy> Does it count if the radius is touching part of the tile? 
<loftar> Well, to be precise, it needs to touch the exact center of the tile. 
|}
This means tiles covered by the column radius just slightly aren't supported.

'''Caution: Destroying a stone column underground will immediately cause a cave-in to occur, even if all tiles in it's radius are supported by other columns or supports.'''

==Support Radius==

[[File:Hafen-Stone_Column_Radius.png|500px|The squares around the column that are safe to mine.]]

All tiles marked in blue are safe to mine. Mining a tile outside of the blue area may cause a cave-in. This structure will support mining within a 11 tile radius.

[[Category:Crafting]]

==In-Game Text==

''"Harnessed by the Old gods,'' 
''The Urox plowed across the skies'' 
''The furrow of time."''

You have enough close encounters with
various beasts of the Wild Hearth that the thought
of taming some of them has entered your mind.
You may snare and keep tamable beasts, as well as
construct coops, troughs and hitching posts.

'''To tame a wild, tamable animal:'''

First, lure it to you with clover.

Then snare it with a rope.

Then tie it to a hitching post.

Then, when soon it stands ready to fight,

Defeat it in combat again, and again,

But when it yields to you, yield to it,

And hurt it no further,

Until the beast has been quelled.

==What it does==

This skill allows you to tame certain [[:Category:Creatures|animals]] and unlocks crafting of several objects and buildings. Tamed animals require a [[Food Trough]] or grassland to survive and breed. See [[Taming]] for a detailed guide on how to tame an animal.

Animals that can be tamed:

!Wild
!Domesticated
|-
|[[Boar|Boars]]
|[[Pig]]
|-
|[[Mouflon]]
|[[Sheep]]

The Archery [[Skills|skill]] allows one to make and use [[Hunter's Bow|bow]]s , arrows (see [[Bone Arrow]] and [[Stone Arrow]]) and [[Hunter's Quiver|quivers]], and also to build [[Archery Target]]s .

==Notes==
* Equipping a [[Hunter's Quiver|quiver]] prevents you from equipping a backpack.
* Bow damage is based on:
** Substance of the bow
** Substance and type of arrow you are using ([[Bone Arrow]] > [[Stone Arrow]])
** How much of your aiming bar is filled

To use a bow, equip it in both 4L and 4R hand slots. You also must have arrows in your inventory, or in an equipped quiver.
To shoot a bow, choose
{{GM|S$hoot!}}

With the arrow cursor that showed up, left click an animal. This aiming bar will appear, and begin filling:

This skill is needed to initiate combat with other players and it also makes it possible for you to murder other Hearthlings. Beware that any of these actions will leave scents, which can be tracked back to you, and place a debuff on you preventing you from logging off for some time (you can still close the client, but your character will remain in the world).

==In-Game Text==
''"Insults fell on his mind,'' 
''Like sparks on wet leaves,''

You've had quite enough, and someone's going to get it hard and fast. Rage allows you to initiate combat with other Hearthlings.

Beware that each breach of the Hearthlaw leaves a Crime Scent -- which can be used to track you down -- and that being an outlaw prevents your character from being logged out for some time after the offense.

You think you could make a Stone Axe for yourself if you found the right materials.

==Information==
This is one of the three skills every new player starts with, the others being [[Wilderness Survival]] and [[Oral Tradition]].

The three basic tools that you can make are a [[Bone Saw|bone saw]], a [[Kuksa|kuksa]] and a [[Stone Axe|stone axe]]. You cannot actually use the bone saw until you have the skill [[Carpentry]]. The kuksa is a [[Birch Bark|birch bark]] cup, which you can drink water from. You need to find a [[Birch Tree|birch tree]] to make one. The stone axe has multiple uses, as a primitive weapon and tool. It allows you to chop trees, remove stumps and cut logs into wood blocks. It also serves as a basic weapon in combat, allowing you to use the "Chop!" attack, if you have discovered it. With the bone saw and the carpentry skill you gain boards and can now build pretty much anything from wood, unless it requires other techs and materials.

The stone axe and bone saw will remain your main carpentry tools until you gain access to metals.

"Denoting a tool as being 'primitive' is an expression of utmost gratitude toward the ancestors."

Primitive tools is the skill that gives your hearthling the ability to construct basic tools of survival.

==Information==
Every new player starts with this skill.

The three basic tools that you can make are a bone saw, a kuksa and a stone axe. You cannot actually use the bone saw until you have the skill carpentry. The kuksa is a birch bark drinking cup, which you can drink water from. You need to find a birch tree to make one. (As birches don't ever grow in pine-fir forests, starting in such a forest means no bark unless you wander, trade or get lucky with wild weeds; go for leather and waterskins / waterbags instead.) The stone axe has multiple uses, as a primitive weapon and tool. It allows you to chop trees, remove stumps and cut logs into wood blocks. With the bone saw and the carpentry skill you gain boards and can now build pretty much anything from wood, unless it requires other techs and materials.

The basic stone axe increases the effectivity of chipping stone and destroying objects; it will serve as your first melee weapon. The stone axe and bone saw will remain your main carpentry tools until you gain access to iron.

You have begun getting to know the mountains, its ways and means, and its cruel, fickle whims. You may construct stone columns to support your mining operations, and you find better ores when mining.

== What it does ==
Tunneling allows you to get more metal from smelting [[Ore]], and allows you to construct [[Stone Column]]s. Stone columns have a larger radius than [[Mine Support]]s, so it is advised to take this skill to save some metal on building supports.
It is one of the skills that every dedicated miner ought to have, the others being [[Metallurgy]], [[Steelmaking]] and [[Deep Artifice]].

''"Born in flame,'' 
''Yet cold and silent,'' 
''Thirsting for blood.'' 
''Who am I?"''

The embers of your forge have run glowing red hot,
and from them now spring the stranges, most wonderful materials.
You have learned how to make steel in steel crucibles, and also enjoy greater success at forging wrought iron.

==What it does==
Steelmaking allows you to construct [[Steel Crucible|steel crucibles]] to produce [[Bar of Steel|steel]]. [[Steel]] is used to craft many top-tier tools, weapons and armor.
It also grants you greater chance of success when forging [[Bar of Wrought Iron|wrought iron]]. It's one of the skills that every dedicated miner ought to have, the others being [[Tunneling]], [[Metallurgy]] and [[Deep Artifice]].

==How to Acquire [[Steel]]==
1. Place up to 9 bars of [[Bar of Cast Iron|cast iron]] into a finery forge, fuel it with at least 2 pieces of coal and light it. 
2. Wait about about 10 minutes, after that extract [[Bloom|bloom]] from the finery forge. 
3. Equip a [[Smithy's Hammer|smithy's hammer]], then take the bloom on to [[Anvil|anvil]], and work it into [[Bar of Wrought Iron|wrought iron]]. 
4. Place up to two [[Bar of Wrought Iron|bars of wrought iron]] and an equal amount of [[Coal|coal]] or [[Black coal|black coal]] into a [[steel crucible]]. 5. Fuel the crucible with [[Block of Wood|blocks of wood]], [[branch]]es and/or any coal, then light it. 
6. With a full fuel meter, the crucible will burn for 12 hours (real time). In order to produce steel, the wrought iron and coal must remain in a continually lit crucible for 56 hours. If the crucible goes out during this time, or if all the coal is removed from it, the steelmaking process is reset.

The quality of steel is directly equal to quality of the wrought iron used, softcapped by following formula:

<math>\frac{_{q}Crucible + _{q}Coal + _{q}AvgFuel}{3}</math>

==Amount of Fuel needed==
''(math by "Apocalypse Please")'' 

9 coal, 18 branches, or 3 blocks w/ 3 branches will fill up a crucible for 12 hours.
1 tick is 40 minutes.
1 block lasts for 3 hours and 20 minutes.

Coal: 9 for 12 hours, 42 for a full cycle.

Branches: 18 for 12 hours, 84 for a full cycle.

Blocks: 3.6 for 12 hours, 16.8 for a full cycle.

==In-Game Text==
''"King Under The Mountain,'' 
''Crowned in stone and steel,'' 
''His deep mine and torch-lit halls."''

You have a basic understanding of the common minerals, and of how to mine them, and can thus construct Mine Shafts and Supports provided you have found appropiate materials.

==What it does==
Mining allows you to mine underground for minerals using an axe or a pickaxe. It's required to construct [[Mine Hole]]s and [[Mine Support]]s. It also unlocks [[Tunneling]] skill with which you are able to construct [[Stone Column]]s.

==How to mine==
To begin mining, you must first build a [[Mine Hole]] or find a [[Cave]]. Have a [[Stone Axe]], [[Metal Axe]] or a [[Pickaxe]] equipped and use {{GM|$Adventure|$Mine}} and click on a wall. Walls within the 49 tiles (7x7) of a cave entrance cannot be mined. Be carefull, as mining without supports may cause a cave-in that will knock you out (though not kill you).

Mining drains stamina based on the type of the tool used, it's quality and the hardness of the tile relative to a character's mining ability. Make sure to bring plenty of drink to restore stamina quickly.

Using a [[Torch|torch]] or [[Miner's Helm|Miner's helmet]] for light will help drastically when mining, particularly when working older mines whose ore deposits are located far away from the minehole. Note however that using a [[Pickaxe|pickaxe]] requires both hands, thus making a miner's helm the only portable light source that can be used. (Note: Use of current custom clients with Night vision negates the need for light sources if turned on.)

The world consists of multiple layers--the surface and five underground layers. Caves and mines all are part of the same underworld; a [[hearthling]] can tunnel from one mine or cave to another. In the underworld, if a hearthling selects 'mine' and clicks on a wall, he or she will attempt to chip out the wall, extracting [[Ore]] or [[stone|stones]], depending on the what mineral node it is.
'''Note''':Initial Cave walls are neutral, and will not give stone or ore (except for occasional [[Cat Gold]]). They must be mined to expose what minerals are directly around it. Minerals ([[Stone]] and [[Ore]]) exist in [[Nodes|nodes]]. Various stone nodes build almost all of the underground. Sometimes ore nodes will intersect cave walls, and sometimes you have to dig into the wall for some distance before finding ore. For you to mine a cave wall, you need to click on the wall that is at least 50 tiles from an entrance. You can also use [[Rustroot Extract]] to find ore in the layer below you.

Whether the hearthling is able to extract [[Ore|ore]] or [[stone|stones]] depends on the hardness of the wall. That is to say, some wall tiles will require more [[strength]] (and/or better tools) to extract ore or rock from. If the hearthling has enough strength to mine it, the tile will be converted into floor.
The higher your strength is and the better quality tools you use, the faster the mining spot will be mined. Also, mining spots contain layers, which means that each tile can be mined multiple times before it converts to floor. Each time you mine there is a chance to get stone or ore. Whether it's ore or stone depends entirely on tile - tile that belongs to vein will not give stones, and tile that does not belong to vein will not give ore. Mined stones and ore are automatically placed in inventory, or dropped to the ground if you lack the space in inventory.

Depending on the hardness of the wall compared to the [[Quality|quality]] of your tool and your strength, you will start to mine that wall or will receive an error message such as the following.
Messages that occur while mining (each message means you need 10-15 more Mining ability to mine succesfully):
* You don't even manage to scratch that rock.
* That rock is very much too hard for you to mine.
* That rock is much too hard for you to mine.
* That rock is slightly too hard for you to mine.
* That rock is just slightly too hard for you to mine.

The ability to mine out walls easier scales with [[Mining Ability]] , calculated in W8 as <math>\sqrt {Strength * avgTool}</math>. Note that the tool's average is calculated based on double the qualities for pickaxes and normal qualities for axes. Formula for it is suspected to be <math> AvgTool = \sqrt[2]{\frac{Essence^2+Substance^2+Vitality^2}{3}} </math> for axes or double that for pickaxes. Said formula has also been affectionately referred to as "the whole square average thinger", it's a technical term.

'''Example:''' You have a q 20/20/20 [[Pickaxe]] (remember that pickaxe quality counts double in the formula) and 60 Strenght. Your mining ability would equal to sqrt(60 * 40) = ~50 Mining ability. Let's assume you tried to mine a wall and received "That rock is much too hard for you to mine" message. That means you would need at least 80 or more Mining ability to start mining that wall.

Using a better quality tool and better strength means more tiles to mine available. Strength can be increased by equipment such as a [[Bear Tooth Talisman]], [[Bear Cape]] or rings: [[Forge Ring]] and [[Thane's Ring]] 

==Safety and Cave-ins==
'''Note''': Cave-ins currently do not cause death, but they can destroy some objects like stockpiles if a boulder falls on them.

===Mining with supports===
To mine without any risk of cave-in you need to be mining a tile where the centre of the tile is covered by a [[Mine Support]] or a [[Stone Column]]. To see the radius of a support you can go to Build -> Buildings & Construction then choose a support and hover it over a built support so they coincide. Or use a custom client to see them at all times.

You may also safely mine some tiles around a minehole entrance. According to jorb: 
''The minehole entrance is a support with the same radius as a normal wooden support. ~~Jorb 09 Dec. 2015''

===Mining without supports===

You can mine without supports, though be aware that some tiles will cause cave-ins. Even some initial cave walls can cause one.
There is a method to avoid them though. It is somewhat similar to the "Minesweeper" game. Some tiles will cause dust particles to fall from the ceiling when mined. That means one or more of the 8 tiles around the tile (3x3 square with the said tile in center) you just mined will cause a cave-in. So if a tile doesn't cause particles to fall, it means that the 8 tiles around it are safe to mine (unless it itself is a cave-in tile, then it won't cause particles to fall {{Verify}}).
See [http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=40714 Sevenless' guide to haven and hearth] for more info on this method.

==Mining Difficulty and Ore Quality==

Underground there are 3 types of mining related [[Nodes|nodes]]. Ore veins, Rock quality and Hardness nodes. These nodes are all placed randomly and have no relation to each other except under chance conditions. All rock that is mined will be of the quality equal to the rock quality node (or the base quality if there is no node) of that area. This applies to both stones mined from "empty" rock and ore mined from an ore vein. Finding a soft, high quality ore vein is therefore a very good stroke of luck.

There is only one relation between hardness and quality. As you descend levels of the world, each one gains base quality and base hardness. Quality potential goes up each layer significantly, however it is unknown the exact amount hardness goes up.

==Quoting Phaen==
[[File:Mining_Layers.png|right]]
"A couple of things to note:
:There are five underground layers.
:The black areas represent solid rock.
:Caves are natural passageways and they only appear on the first underground layer.
:You can use mining to dig a path between any two things (minehole or cave) as long as they're on the same layer.
:Building a minehole on any layer will allow you to access the next layer below it.
:Deeper layers have a higher minimum quality for ore (q10, q20, q30, q40, q50 respectively), but you can get lucky and find higher.
:Deeper layers have a higher minimum hardness, but you can get unlucky and find harder.
:Silver deposits do not exist on layer 1. You must dig deeper.
:Gold deposits do not exist on layer 1 or 2. You must dig deeper.
:Silver and Gold do not have a quality, other ores do.
:Prospecting searches the layer below the layer you are currently standing."[http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=26319&start=10#p330486] 

Copper appears to be very rare on layer 1 if at all.

Supports hold up the mine's ceiling to prevent cave-ins.

Quoted from Loftar: 
<code>
:<SuperDaddy> Does it count if the radius is touching part of the tile? 
:<loftar> Well, to be precise, it needs to touch the exact center of the tile. 
</code>
This means tiles covered by the support radius just slightly aren't supported.

'''Caution: Destroying a mine support underground will immediately cause a cave-in to occur, even if all tiles are supported by other supports.'''

[[File:Hafen-Mine_Support_Radius.png|300px|The squares around the support that are safe to mine.]]

All tiles marked in blue are safe to mine. Mining a tile outside of the blue area may cause a cave-in. This structure will support mining within a 9 tile radius.
