I have been trying to find a mine but right now the only way to find them is by exploring underground or if there is a ravine that cuts through one on your map you can sometimes see one that way. I think it would be fun to have an above ground entrance so we can find them while exploring above ground. Maybe it could have a few wood blocks over the entrance that we can chop off then enter the mine and start exploring. It would be another thing to find while we are exploring our world and deciding where we want to build.
I am glad I am not the only one that thinks they should have above ground entrances. Hopefully this will get enough attention that it will be put into an update. I like mining but I also like exploring above ground and the more things to find above ground the better. So far mining in my current world has not lead me to any mines and this world has some great mountains in it so I want to do more above ground exploring. It got me to thinking it would be great to have boarded up mine entrances above ground that I could try and find.
Agreed. What kind of idiot builds a mine with no entrance?
Maybe that's why they're abandoned, the miners died because they forgot to build an exit.
It was the architects idea-Family Guy.
Anyway, I agree, there should be an entrance.

No, there has never, ever been a sandbox game with a story or ending... except Grand Theft Auto... and Saints Row... and Red Dead Redemption... and Crack Down... and Assassins Creed...
Your awareness of your surroundings rivals that of Dora the Explorer.
Why does everyone think I don't have an avatar? Is there anyone who can see the one black pixel.
Please click the dragons, they need to grow. Also, my fully grown dragons can be found in my bio.
Next to that, I support.
