How to Automate Underground Mining with Borin
Setting Up Mining Commands
Borin can handle repetitive digging tasks so you do not have to clear stone manually. Open Borin's custom management menu to set its working instructions:
- Area Excavation: Assign Borin to dig out designated underground areas to quickly hollow out large chambers, basements, or underground rooms.
- Strip Mining: Command Borin to mine forward in a straight path. This automated straight-line tunneling cuts through rock rapidly to expose hidden ore veins without requiring your direct tool durability or effort.
Collecting Mined Resources
As Borin mines forward or clears rooms, loose ground drops will scatter across the floor. Borin actively sweeps the immediate area and automatically collects these loose items. Whenever you walk close to Borin, the companion tosses the collected items directly to you so you can quickly gather the excavated materials into your personal inventory.
