      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      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.

7 posts in this topic

Today, I went on an expidition to go pick up rocks on find metal. Now i have exactly 20 stacks of rocks and no metal. Is this a bug or just horrible bad luck?

Horrible bad luck, keep looking. I once had to travel 3000 blocks + for some iron.

on what stone layer are you collecting rocks?

Make sure you're on a layer that can hold starter metals, Otherwise you won't find any.

Do you mean 3000 blocks on ground until you found Hematite, Magnetite or Limonite on the surface as you find copper nuggets?

I thought you could only find Sphalerite, Cassiterite, Bismuthinite and Copper on the surface.

No, no I mean I had to travel that many blocks to find iron underground. I was looking for a stone type that can contain iron. Then, when I found it, I went prospecting for it.

You cant find Tin (Cassiterite), Copper (Native Copper), or Zinc (Sphalerite) in Chalk, Shale or Dolomite. The only starter metal that can be found in Chalk, Shale, or Dolomite in Bismuthinite.
