      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Surface Nuggets

26 posts in this topic

Strange that searching for a similar topic doesn't come up on anything like what i'm going to discuss..

Everyone that has played a while TFC knows that on the surface are scattered around ores in form of small nuggets, but for my experience i've only found bismuthinite, cassiterite, sphalerite and copper in those rocks..

what i'm aking myself since few days ago is: are they the only ores i can found on the surface?? i mean, i know that every mineral smeltable into metal is available both as medium and small nugget, but i can't find small gold nugget or small galena nuggets, has it something to do with the possible fact that ores which are not in tier 0 or 1 are found deeper from the surface?

That because loose rocks contain minerals of the surroundings. If you find a nugget, probably below you there is a deposit of what you found. I.E. you can't find gold because it's too deep.

The fact is that by breaking rocks you will only find those nuggets. Some other nuggets are obtainable as well, but ONLY via panning or sluicing. For example, there exist limonite nuggets and gold nuggets.

Indeed, that's what i was suspecting :huh:

You rembered me that way, now i use only the system of searching nuggets on the surface to find a vein under an area with a good concentration of them :D but using the sluice searching up to 60m deeper..

Ya, just put a sluice next to a block of gold or iron, and shazam! The maintenance will be a pain in the ass though. Actually I guess you could make a stream of water up to your above-ground base, and either drop in gravel periodically, or you could use RedPower or something and do that.

My good sir, to perform this task, the incredible Bioxx, developer of the TFC mod, created a new type of bucket. A bucket never see before! The blue steel bucket. This bucket can store WATER SOURCES!!!

Buy your own today for the modest price of 299,90 dunk coins.

Call them dunk coins. I don't know but dunk hasn't the capitalized "d" and maybe he is like achartran (He hates the capitalized first letter).

Red steel buckets carry water sources; Blue steel buckets carry lava sources.

I WISH I made music for a living. I install satellite dishes... "and there was much rejoicing... yaaaaaaaaaaayyyy...."

My goal is to compose musical pieces for a living in some way shape or form... but like the stones said.. you can't always get what you want.

And another sad story at TFC forums, hope this game can at least give you the recognition. What you're doing here is great!

If they keep posting... anyway... take it as you will... I would take it, mostly, as a little joke, no harm.
