Mining with drills

Drills

Drills mine in front of the vehicle. Point the bit at a safe test area, move slowly, and stop before approaching another claim, a container room, or a dangerous opening.

The bit and body are separate materials: changing the body with a wrap does not change the drill's tier or bit quality. Inspect the model's offer before buying a drill for a particular task.

Before operating

Use an area where you have permission to change blocks. Machinery is not a way around a claim or public-region rule. Carry sufficient fuel, leave room for cargo, and test the relevant action before committing resources to a large project.
