Iron mining impossible to learn
Posted: Sun Aug 13, 2023 1:39 am
Tried this multiple times, the possible quirk that may have lead to this bug is that I followed the "walkthrough" in the wiki which doesn't show the joining of the clan part in the walkthrough section, so initially I skipped the payment of the 160 crowns step. I am unsure if this is the source of the issue but I did go back and pay the fee, and get accepted, and then I went and trained again and still couldn't mine. Here's a high level sumary and then a log of the last attempt in full
- Acquired necessary items (pickaxe, gloves, lantern)
- Trained at miner and was told to bring back ore good luck
- Went to mining tunnels, tried to mine >20 times, nothing but 'You swing your pickaxe but miss spectacularly!'
- Went to master paid fee, got accepted
- Weint to miner, repeated training
- Went to mining tunnels, tried to mine >20 times, nothing but 'You swing your pickaxe but miss spectacularly!'
- Weint to miner, repeated training
- Went to mining tunnels, tried to mine >20 times, nothing but 'You swing your pickaxe but miss spectacularly!'
- logged off, waited for reboot hoping that that would reset anything broken.

Blacksmith's Shop
Inside the blacksmith's shop are displayed a great many wares made of iron
and bronze. Here one can buy everything from pruning hooks to simple
swords and axes. One side of the shop is dominated by a huge chimney, with
a huge bellows mounted alongside, where the smith softens the iron and
bronze to work it. A large bench is laden with some of the tools of his
trade, and three quenching barrels stand nearby. The stairway at the back
of the room leads up into the blacksmith's private home.

Small Road through Village
Leaving the village square to the west, this small road branches off from the
main route, continuing eastward through the burgh. A comfortable inn beckons
you to the north, while on the south side of the road stands a building with
a huge chimney billowing dense smoke. A bronze plaque with etched letters is
nailed to the front door. East the road continues on through the village.

On first entering the inn, the noise of its patrons is nearly overwhelming.
A huge room filled with tables stretches before the door, and although this

A Damp Cavern
An old brick stairway leads up through a small tunnel. Water that has run
down the steep steps has pooled on the floor of dirt, causing your feet to
sink into the mud with each step. Green moss thrives on the damp rock walls
of this cavern. The cavern extends to the south.
