Super Miners come from Ethereal chests. Ethereal chests can spawn very rarely, be compressed from gold chests, or purchased in the shop. Each super miner can be leveled up with Super Miner souls increasing their abilities. You can gain souls from scraping super miners, from Ethereal chests, from scientist excavations, and possibly other features in the future.
Chest Compressor
The chest compressor has been reworked.
It has been moved from the second world down to the first world at 700km. The conversion rates are much more favorable now, but there is now a time to convert chests. There are 2 new structure upgrades to facilitate these changes. One for time to compress and one for the number of chests required to compress from one to the other.
Other changes
- Doubled the frame rate.
- New Cave Tutorial.
- Reactor moved down to W2-100km
- Reviving Scientist no longer scales cost based on rarity.
- Some pop ups will now show above other popups without closing the previous popup.
- Replaced confirmation popups and text input popups with a newer nicer looking popup.
- All sorts of weird performance improvements.
- Added a survey which grants some tickets
- Many other QoL improvements.
