Mine Hazards
Planned: dangers inside mines such as cave-ins, with timber supports and scaffolding to hold them back.
Facts
Each fact links to where it comes from.
Collapsing areas were removed from the mine; developers want to bring back hazards and maybe AI.
Old builds had cave-ins fixed with supports; developers want them back plus enemies, buildables and maybe gas pockets.
Timber supports will be needed to stop cave-ins in the mine.
Planned: build scaffolding and mining supports inside your mine.
