v0.31:Mining
Revision as of 20:44, 1 April 2010 by SirPenguin (talk | contribs) (Is this mining the skill page or mining the act of mining? I added a distinction between mining/channeling for now)
Template:AV Mining is an essential part of building a fort in Dwarf Fortress. There are several reasons you might want to mine, such as searching for various stone types, or simply to create the basic tunnels and rooms in your fort.
There are two types of skills associated with this skill: mining and channeling. Mining removes a section of wall while preserving both the ceiling and the floor. Channeling, however, removes the floor, replacing it with a downwards ramp.
