Talk:Cavern

Merged into the Environments page
This article, while well written, is so small that I'd say we merge it - along with all the rest of the biome pages - into the overarching Environment page. MarekkPie 14:53, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

The entire intro to this page is written using depth measurements that are not universal to all map sizes - I know for sure that on a small map, the underworld starts at around -1450 feet, so obviously lava does not start appearing deeper than that on small maps. I would recommend either rewriting it so that it has appropriate measurements for all map sizes, or removing the depth data completely and leaving the qualitative data in there. 98.169.19.67 15:42, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Gem Rarity Conflict
This page states that as one decreases in depth, gem seams become larger. However, the Gems page implies that depth does not matter when hunting gems. Can someone clarify on both pages? --Colonel Thirty Two 01:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Different depths cited
If the measurements vary according to world size not have a chart?

Also it is not mentioned for which world size the depths cited come from rendering them completely irrelevant.

Measurement of Start Depth
I am extremely doubtful of the -850ft mark being the start of the cavern level, given that I have a large world where the cavern level starts at 350ft below Level, or -350ft. Perhaps the author meant -850ft below the very surface, i.e. from where you initially spawn. I would like this to be changed, since this error also coincides with errors in the start depth of the Underground Jungle.
