Looks neat, but are you going to add any type of threat to the Miner(s)? Threats such as Cave-ins, Creatures; or any other more in-depth threats such as Hunger, Oxygen, or Thirst?
If he does he better have a way to turn it back off, lol
There's already heaps of lava deaths. But I will be adding monsters, yes. Similar to how Minecraft's darkness spawning works.
I'm guessing that the lava enacts one of those "Oh stuff, to late" moments upon discovery?
"Wooh, Hematite ore-- OH forget LAVA"But I've had drop items on death off for testing. Also I'm not sure how to make items perish in lava.
