Changelogs
Go level up a new skill as you dig up Artifact spots! 
  • Gain EXP from Artifact spots, clay spots, digging something up in the mines, or from panning
  • As you level up, gain access to (currently) two displays. You can put artifacts on these displays through the Preservation Chamber machine (learned at level 2). Artifacts on display sell for a lot more than those that aren't!
  • At level 8 you unlock the grinding. Similar to the bonemill, you can turn rusty metal artifacts into ore. Or pure gold ones into ore. There are a few things you can shove into the grinder, so experiment!
  • Choose professions that increase gold gained from selling artifacts, speed boost when digging up artifacts, or even be able to pan for artifacts!


Here are the 6 new professions
  • level 5a, Pioneer: More artifact spots have a chance to spawn each day.
  • ------- Level 10a1, Antiquarian: When you dig up an artifact spot, get a bonus, guaranteed artifact
  • ------- Level 10a2, Curator: When you sell an artifact that is on display, it is worth more.
  • Level 5b, Trowler: Have a chance to get artifacts from panning
  • ------- Level 10b1, Dowser: The loot table for panned items is expanded
  • ------- Level 10b2, Gold Rusher: When you get an item from panning or from Digging an artifact spot, you get a minute speed boost


Configs
  • Alternative skill page icon: Changes the skill page icon from a shovel to a brush on a rock. Requires a restart to reload the skill
  • Enable Prestige: Requires MARGO: Allows Archaeology to prestige like other skills. Requires a restart to reload the skill after changing the config.

Compatibility
  • MARGO: Make sure to Click the *enable prestige* config
  • All Professions: All spacecore skills are already compatible with all professions.
  • Automate: The Water shifter is NOT COMPATIBLE with automate and automate won't see it. I have no plans to add automate functionality to it. However, if someone wants to code it themselves, my DMs are open.
  • CJB Item Spawner: The mod is not 100% compatible with CJB Item spawner. Most items will show up in it just fine. However the Water Shifter, Glass Path, and Bone Path that show up are the Dummy Objects I used to make their crafting recipes and have no functionality.
  • Better Panning: Works with better panning
  • Upgradable Pan: Works with upgradable pan
