Squin used to have tons of copper!

Now it's all gone! what happened? :D

i used to stay here mining, also now there's only 1 police tower, so less dummies to train, and i was attacked by a Shek (i have 8 greenlanders), not sure if it was someone picking up a fight, or if it was a shek soldier telling me to not use the dummies (they used to let you train there).

theres a copper and an iron node outside one of the gates near a bifurcation.

i think that if you are not allied with the faction and you use their training dummies they get angry at you and tell you to stop and afterwards they attack you.

Were you referring to a pre 1.0 game?
The town buildings can vary between games.
Check your faction rep before using their stuff.

Yes i'm talking about Kenshi possibly more than 1 year ago, so that's very pre 1.0

Squin used to have easily 5 spots of copper , for 2 men each (so you could put 10 guys mining there ), not too distant from each other, i would make tons of cash there mining (well, relatively speaking for a poor man with no base :)

but it enabled me to get quite a bit of cats and buy nice stuff.

Now i'm resorting to mining mostly iron and some copper close to Stack.


It just seems there's way less rocks to mine now, OR they are much more separated, or have been moved to other places.

Even in Blister Hill i remember mining not so far from it, and those rocks are still gone.

Basicly there seems to be quite a bit of Iron, and not that many copper (especially clumped together)


I'm not complaining though, it's just an observation, i'm having tons of fun playing Kenshi, as usual :)

Yeah the dev removed quite a few mining spots during the last year. Didn’t remove anything completely, that I noticed. just thinned out places that had multiple ore nodes. So you may see 1 copper where once there was 3.

Iron, copper, stone can be mined. Nothing else. Stone mines need to be build. Some pre existing stone mines exist in some settlements though.

There's two 2-man copper nodes on the hill northeast of the city on the way to Hub. There's a bunch of 1-man nodes around the path that circles the city, some nestled into the hills. Plenty of copper, just a bit of a walk.

I normally set up a mercenary tent, a campfire, and a bunch of bedrolls there, as that happens to be a good place to set up a small recovery camp. The route to Squin-Hub can have a disturbing number of dust bandit caps between them. It's also a good vantage point for spotting animals in the area.
