A potato mineshaft is a version of the mineshaft for the Potato dimension in 24w14potato.

Generation

Potato mineshafts generate below Y=60 in all of the biomes in the Potato dimension. Because most of this dimension is empty, large portions of potato mineshafts hang over the void.

Structure

Potato mineshafts are made up of blocks related to potato wood: planks, fences, and stems. Instead of chains, they are held by potato pedicules that connect them to the terrain above. Monster spawners, which spawn cave spiders, generate in the same way as in regular mineshafts, surrounded by cobwebs.

Some terrain features, like clusters of ancient debris in wasteland biomes, can generate on the structure.

Loot

This structure very rarely generates with minecart with chests. These minecarts cannot spawn in "tunnels" hovering over the void, which usually make up over 90% of any given potato mineshaft. However they can spawn in the actual tunnels carving through the terrain. Loot in these rare chest minecarts is exactly the same as loot found in normal mineshafts.

Issues

Issues relating to "Potato Mineshaft" are not maintained on the bug tracker because it is an April Fools' joke, and is therefore not in the newest stable version or snapshot. Issues reported there are closed as "Invalid".
