I'm so impatient, that I've created my own update for Ominus mod called "Quarry". For more information look at his page on Nexus mods:
THIS ISN'T DOWNLOAD LINK, MOD IS ATTACHED TO POST (YELLLOW TEXT AT BOTTOM OF THIS POST)http://www.nexusmods.com/rimworld/mods/8/?
Now it's Alpha 5 ready! :D For me it works also on Alpha 6 (please report any [ANY] issues with my mod)
And I fixed bug when quarries won't yield their... yields. Oh, and now for more fun, mined quarries give 75 of stackable resources. Beacuse quarries take soooooooooooooooooooooooo long to bulid and mine, and they need stone floor, so it's hard to make a lot of metal/uranium/silver with them.
FUTURE PLANS:
- Get all rights to mod ;)
- Make auto-quarry, which eats a lot of power, but you don't need to assing your lazy colonists.
I've started work on workbench based quarry, so you won't have to place hundreds of quarry blocks, just one site :D
If I'm not allowed to post update of something plz Ominus PM me then I shall delete/close topic.

Ugh wasnt on nexus for ages, thats a nice mod idea, and kinda one of few points that rimworld lacks :)
Glad to hear that not only I like the mod :).
I'm not really sure what this mod does...
When I research the tech I cant seem to build the quarry. Does it work with the latest update or is it incompatible with other mods?
I've checked. It should work fine. You can found Quarries in Production tab. I have not incompa..., incontab...? It works fine with everything. :)
Sorry, my bad there, grabbed the older copy :o
Works well now. More balanced than the iron weed mod.
How long quarry dig metal?
already researched the last one but still no quarry in the production tab :(
Are you sure that you downloaded latest version? It's attached to post. (not link to nexusmods.com ,only that one below first post.)
i'm pretty sure i'm not doing anything wrong... but when i mine the uranium quarry, i don't get any uranium. built and mined five of them but so far, not a radioactive scrap :S
[Note] if you download and install the version from Nexus, the quarries don't appear in the build menu. download "Quarry.zip" attached to the post and it works fine... other than what i mentioned above at least ;)
Yeah I downloaded the current one, I get the research but the actual quarry's do not show up in any of the tabs.
Hmmm, maybe it is A5 bug, I need to check it out.
Yeah, It happens to me to. I'll try to fix that. (Thanka mipen that his mod also have quarries, so I can look how they work :p )

I'm just wondering if the Owner of this Mod gave you permission to update it, if they didn't specify a license, or leave a few sentences, all the code and textures are their intellectual property and you can't use them.
I would love to make it so you add the auto quarry for a ton of power, maybe starts out at about 700~ at start.. then research it to bring the power down to about 200-250? (each time you research it, it decreases by 50-75?)
Will it be updated? It was really useful.

Glad to hear it :). Yes, I will update it when I will have some time.
Updated this to Alpha 8, the different rock types and my inability to get multiple drops from one rock means that the stone quarry only drops granite, which is the strongest rock HP wise. Also you can build these anywhere, not just rock surfaces, couldn't get that to work.
I have not changed the drop rates from alpha 7, so you might want to change silver drops because 35 silver is pretty worthless.
This version uses the graphics from the alpha 7 version so if you want the prettier (IMO)
graphics for uranium, silver, and metal, download the alpha 6 version off of the nexus and replace the textures.
I would have made a new topic about this considering the last post date, but its not my mod sooo...
*edit: typo
[attachment deleted due to age]
can someone update this mod to alpha 11
