Realise Realize that the world is 2 dimensional. All the rock and ore tiles are pillars, they are not cubes. You can ignore the height of mountains when prospecting. Only North/South/West/East matter.
prospect quality, typos
== Description ==
Prospecting is the locating of [[:Category:Resources | ore]] veins in rock. To start prospecting, activate a [[Pickaxe]] and right-click a rocktilerock tile, select Mining -> Prospect.
*1.0 prospecting skill gives you the ability to see where veins are and see where you can mine [[flint]].
* You cannot prospect gems.
* All ores are regional. This means that when you prospect for example copper ore in a certain spot, there is a large chance that there will only be copper ore in a large area, and no other types of ore.
* Ores on the homeserver home server are capped at 50ql.

'''1:''' "you should start to prospect for another vein of this ore"

X = no prospect of that ore
<-- = last tile you did get a prospect
3 = I recomend recommend you start mining here

When you prospect on the surface, you can detect ore in an area of 7x7 area around you. That's 3 tiles in all directions from the tile you are prospecting. Prospecting inside a cave is not done to find ores, but to tell specific details about the tile you are prospecting.
<br> <br>
When you prospect e.g. iron ore on the sruface surface that means that somewhere within a range of 3 tiles around you (including the tiles behind you) an iron vein is located. You then try to find the tiles where you can no longer prospect the ore. You need to find one North or Side edge, and one East or West edge. <br><br>
Then count 3 tiles from both those edges and the tile you end up with is the ore vein.
