Super Miners update, version 0.40
Are normal miners not cutting it for you anymore? Do you find yourself wanting something a little more grand? Well have no fear, Super Miners are here! Super Miners wander around your mines and perform many actions for you!
- Mining (mineral) - Increases miner speed at its depth by a %
- Mining (isotope) - Increases the number of isotopes mined on its depth by a %
- Buff - Every X minerals it mines it grants a buff.
- Drilling - Jumps on your drill and increases the mining speed by a %
- Seller - Automatically sells x amount of the selected mineral every second.
- Egg - Passively gains experience and levels up for free, increasing its scrap amount. (gaining you more super miner souls)

- Reward - grants a random reward every X minerals.
Super Miners come from Ethereal chests. Ethereal chests can spawn very rarely, be compressed from gold chests, or purchased in the shop. Each super miner can be leveled up with Super Miner souls increasing their abilities. You can gain souls from scraping super miners, from Ethereal chests, from scientist excavations, and possibly other features in the future.
Chest Compressor
The chest compressor has been reworked.
It has been moved from the second world down to the first world at 700km. The conversion rates are much more favorable now, but there is now a time to convert chests. There are 2 new structure upgrades to facilitate these changes. One for time to compress and one for the number of chests required to compress from one to the other.
Other changes

- Rebalanced caves to be easier in the early game.
- Improved the Healing, Aerial, and Magnetic Drone.

- Updated translations and added Thai.
For a detailed list of all changes view https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1397920/view/3138447154593352728
(expanded from there)
Cave changes
- The drones have been rebalanced to be stronger with early levels, but each level up is now a smaller upgrade.
- Early cave duration has been extended.
- The max building materials you can get from a single cave reward has been reduced to 10.
- Aerial drones now provide a vision of 3 nodes, up from 2.
- The Aerial and Magnetic drones have had their fuel storage reduced to make it easier to send them out, but they’ve also had their fuel consumption reduced some to keep their max distance similar to what it was before.

Trade changes
- Level 1 trading post on earth now has a much shorter base cooldown.

Scientist changes
- Timelapse, Mineral piles, and Money bags from scientists now scale with scientist level and depth. For these excavations their duration is now based on the value of the reward. This will result in early game and early level scientists having much shorter excavations, but lower rewards and higher level scientists having longer duration but higher value rewards. The higher level your scientist gets the better conversion rate for duration to reward.
- Relics have also had their rarities adjusted and should be more common in general besides some of the very rare ones which are unchanged.

Metal detector changes
- The metal detector description now properly updates in the crafting menu to display what the next level does.
- Since the game starts with mineral deposits visible from the start, level 4 now only provides the ability to jump to chests using the spacebar. (this functionality is now described in the description).
- Level 5 of the metal detector now provides the ability to click anywhere on a level to open a chest.
- Level 6 has been added to the Metal detector and provides the ability to collect all natural chest spawns in the world and place them in the chest collector up to your storage capacity.

Hey @everyone ! Hope you're all having a great week, we're still working on the next update but it should be ready next week! One of the things we're planning on adding in the new update is some quotes that will popup from time to time over the miner's heads. If you want to potentially have your quote added to the game you can submit your suggestions to @MineBot by DM'ing him and saying "Quote: " followed by your quote. I've attached a few examples.

Hey @everyone ! I know it's been a while, but we're still working towards getting the next update ready. Some of you figured out the puzzle from last week so just in case any of you missed it, here's what the decoded message was:
- A modding system
- Expanded crafting system
- New world
- More drills
- Miner upgrades
- Updated artwork
- Offline progress
Unfortunately, it's looking like we probably wont be able to get the modding system in the next update, but it's definitely coming soon! (Editor comment: This modding system is still on the game code, but apparently was never fully implemented)
