Prospector
Description:This make miners a little smarter.
Currently, the only thing they do is spot valuable rocks that haven't been marked for mining, and do so. In this way, the prospector should mine a whole vein by simply marking the surface-visible ores, reducing micro-managing.
You could also trace a line through a whole mountain and the prospector will mine any veins they encounter on the way.
In the future, they plan to use accompanying mules to store mined ores and have them dump the ores back at the home.
The mod uses Harmony so it shouldn't have any compatibility issues unless another mod mangles the mining logic.

Forgive my ignorance. I used the link https://github.com/firefueled/rimworld_prospector/releases/; as it stands before anyone can use your mod, you will need to compile it first. You need the following folder structures: About, Assemblies, Defs, etc...
Right now your uncompressed zip looks like this:

It looks like you downloaded the source code as a zip file.
The zip in the releases url is the compiled version. It only has the About and Assemblies folders, inside the Prospector folder, since all my modifications where to the game logic.

Yup, I did. I think that master part should've gave me a clue. (palmfaced, and hangs head in shame)
He didn't used the master as a mod project, just let's say as a "cloud".
So the master is primary not useable as moddownload like most other modder do.
There are even a few modder which use the master as main distribution for all their mods and full of zip's.
So you allways should take a look at "release" first before you start to download the master.
B19 version is out folks woot.

The next update, where accompanying pack animals will haul the mined ore back home is coming soon, I hope.
