Old tools and artifacts buried in the soil.

I’m thinking in something like digging the soil, underneath us, like when we dig tree patches, we create that tiny hole in the ground you know? I wish I could dig a little more, and open deeper holes, dig dig dig, until we found little treasures, old artifacts or even find big hidden caverns in the underground.

We could create tunnels like worms do, that would be covered up again with time, this opens a possibility to hide little treasures in the ground and of course there could be some locations that would be better than others to dig, make tunnels and find caverns.

This is not just a fun thing to do but also a way to know a little more about our ancestrals, I bet they left some cool old tools and artifacts buried in the soil...

  • That is an awesome idea. And perhaps at a certain point, people with Engineering skills could build Excavators to speed the digging process up!

  • love this idea. what if we could dig in our homes and hollow out a basement or bunker? but of course you would have to worry about cave ins. you could combine a engineering skill with maybe an excavating skill to make support structures?

  • +1! I'd love to see a bit more of what our ancestors' lives were like :)

  • +100  I love that the swamp areas have fishy fossils visible in the walls.  I have been really sad that we haven't been able to dig them out and use them for something.

    and i'll love it more if we could dig a hole and hide something in there.

  • @Stixx maybe we can use planks to support the structure ;D

  • Love this. I'd be happier digging if there was a chance of something special hidden.

  • Love the idea.  Especially if fixing them back up includes making them better then the super tools we have now.

  • Love this idea, too.  Perhaps we could have the option to donate/sell/gift rare artefacts for display in some type of natural history museum in the tower with an accompanying credit line?? e.g. discovered by (glitch name) on (date/location)

    You could totally include a metal detecting skill and a metal detector for extra fun!

  • Also, the teleport potions, they could create a magic hole in the ground instead of the mini door, when people drop inside they get teleported to the other one. It's more fun because you can make some pranks with it, and the only way to avoid is to jump, so imagine you create one behind a tree or bushes, people would get teleported without knowing what happened ;)
