How to Use Mining Platform in Soulmask

     Hey there, adventurers! Ready to take your Soulmask game to the next level? Let's dive into the nitty-gritty of how to use a mining platform in Soulmask. We're talking about that sweet automated mining action that'll keep your resources flowing like a dream. Buckle up, and let's get to it!

 

Finding and Setting Up the Mining Platform

 

    

     First things first, you don't build the mining platform; you find it. They are scattered across the map in key locations like the volcano and desert regions. Keep your eyes peeled for the platform within dangerous zones guarded by Elite Plunders.

 

    

     Once you locate the platform, you'll need to repair it. To do this, gather 36 iron ingots, 18 hardwood parts, 18 hardwood planks, and 18 leather ropes. Now, here's the fun part: you'll need to be part of a tribe to interact with the platform, so make sure you've created one.

 

    

Repairing and Fueling the Platform

 

     When you repair the platform, you’ll need mine parts one, two, and three. The materials for fuel include hardwood parts, metal parts, metal plates, and precious parts. Once you have everything, your next step is to assign a worker to the platform.

 

    

     This is where the magic happens! Assign a tribesman to the mining platform by navigating to 'mine exploitation' and setting the work location to the platform. Make sure your tribesman has the right tools, which you can store in a designated tool storage chest.

 

Managing Your Workers

 

     Your workers will need some TLC to keep them mining efficiently. Equip them with armor that has radiation protection mods, especially if you're mining in hazardous areas. Also, keep an eye on their food and health.

 

    

     They need fruit kebabs or mixed jams to stay nourished and healthy. Place mine chests near the platform to store all the precious metals they'll collect. Remember, workers won’t leave the platform by themselves, so you need to manually transport the mined goods back to your base.

 

     For more advanced setups, consider using U markers to optimize the mining radius. Place these markers at ground level to maximize the area your workers can mine. You can also set a patrol route outside the platform's immediate area to cover more ground. While the storage in the mine chests isn’t vast, it's crucial to keep the resource flow steady.

 

    

Dealing with Challenges

 

     The mining platform can be a tricky beast. Workers might die from radiation or hunger if not properly managed. Unfortunately, you can’t build regular chests or foundations near the platform, which limits your storage options. The system needs some polish, and for now, managing workers on mining platforms can be challenging.

 

    

     So, there you have it! Using a mining platform in Soulmask requires a bit of strategy and preparation, but it's totally worth it for the automated resource collection. Just remember to keep your workers well-equipped and nourished, and you'll have a steady stream of metals to keep your adventures going strong.
