If the original author requests it, I will remove this update.

Supports "Refine the silver!"

Replaced textures with something a bit more vanilla (I’m no artist though).
Excellent retexture by Phaneron: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2980900546

Work time for all tasks increased. Balance suggestions appreciated.

Original mod notes (1.2):

Adding the possibility to mine some gold in the rivers.

A long time ago, life in the rim was lone and boring. But then it happened: GOLD was found!
All of a sudden people from all over the planet rushed to the rivers to find a nugget of this precious metal.
And with it comes a new, deadly disease: GOLD FEVER!

———————————————————

GOLD RUSH adds structures and recipes to mine gold out of the rivers (and rivers only!).
In rivers, the following structures can be built:

———————————————————

======= GOLD PAN =======

A classic! Simplest of the tools. (10 Steel) Three recipes possible:

– Use Gold Pan:
Simply washing out some dirt from the river. 1 piece of gold is obtained, but it takes ages!
– Wash out sediment:
Washing out dug up sediment promises better results. 1 piece of gold is obtained, moderate time-consuming.
– Wash out filtered sediment:
Filtered sediment is the best base for using your gold pan. 3 pieces of gold are obtained, moderate time-consuming.

======= DIGGING SPOT =======

As simple as it is. A shovel and a bucket. (15 Steel)

– Dig up sediment from the river
The heavier gold is found deeper on the ground of the river. Dig for it! 1 sediment is obtained, moderately time-consuming.

======= STREAM SLUICE =======
(Requires Smithing research)

Use the power of the stream to filter your sediment. (70 Steel)

– Filter sediment
The dug up sediment will get filtered and sediment rich of gold will be left. 1 filtered sediment is obtained, moderately time-comsuming.

======= DREDGE =======
(Requires Smithing and Electricity research)

An improvised dredge! Pumping up sediment from the river and leading it directly into an integrated stream sluice! Making gold-mining way easier! (Steel 180 | Components 15 | Chemfuel 50)

– Pump up river sediment and filter it
By using a pump, powered by a generator, and a stream sluice, filtered sediment is obtained way more efficiently. 6 filtered sediments are obtained, moderately time-consuming. Needs chemfuel!

———————————————————

The following structure must be build on solid ground:

———————————————————

======= GOLD SHAKING-TABLE =======
(Requires Smithing and Electricity research)

A masterpiece of engineering! Great alternative to your gold pan and it keeps your hands dry! But the fine mechanism only works with filtered sediment. (Steel 250 | Components 12) 50 Buckets of filtered sediment can be "stored" nearby. (In-game declared as "fuel")

– Use shaking table
Using the shaking table to extract the gold out of the filtered sediment. 1 piece of gold is obtained, fast production. needs power!
