Admittedly it's a bit weird that the secondary mode is disabled by default in survival and requires you to toggle it on in the customization (or use an admin command in an existing world). That is definitely something that should be changed, in my opinion. Just the primary mode alone does work, to some extent, but all it ultimately changes is having to dig more shafts closer together in order to not narrowly miss something while digging past it. That's not as fun and engaging as actively detecting and triangulating the ore deposit is.

I didn't know I could change the config in game with a command so thank you for that. I said I didn't want to say TFC was better but without the secondary mode turned on it actually was better. I never liked TFC but I had it figured out and could find my ore no problem. Now that i have enabled the secondary mode in VS I will reevaluate. And I agree this should be default.

IMO it should never be a chance but a definite since you are using up materials on a whim. I am surprised to see a mechanic like this from devs who played the much better mechanic in Terrafirmacraft. I cannot believe I am saying TFC is better at this point.
