Talk:Drills

Stops working periodically
Every 150 or so "turns" of the driller it stops working until you reclick the mouse button, but as useal, need confirmation from someone else aswell.


 * I can confirm this, but it was around 125 for me. Only tested the cobalt drill, the only one I have so far. And please, sign your comments by putting  --~  at the end. --190.55.92.154 03:10, 12 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Well actually it is not the number of blocks. After 1 minute of pressing the mouse button the drill will stop, mining or not.So it is either sort of an anomaly as in overheating or a bug.

Unobtainable Lunar drills?
Do you think it's okay to list the unobtainable Lunar drills (e.g. the Solar Flare Drill in here)? goldenapple (talk) 17:58, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

Orichalcum Drill mining speed
Is the Orichalcum Drill's mining speed really 10? Its pickaxe equivalent is listed with a mining speed of 8, and it does look like an outlier on File:Pickaxes.svg. --CyberShadow WA (talk) 14:27, 7 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Looking at the source code, I can confirm the tool speed is 10. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 19:37, 8 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks. In this case, probably it should be made clear that at least in this case, drills differ from their pickaxe equivalent by more than visuals and possible prefixes. --CyberShadow WA (talk) 19:48, 8 May 2019 (UTC)


 * I added a note, thank you for the suggestion! --Rye Greenwood (talk) 20:23, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
