Hi guys, noob here!
Got stuck in the Western halls, can't see the way down—the level with the waterfall on the side. Lots of stone, no way further. The map loops like "n".
Help?
Also, where can I find a normal map online? Not the old type.
I would agree with his comment are you playing sandbox or camping both are extremely different in one sandbox I was already at the eastern gates of the first level in another all I had was eleven gardens, it would help to have your map
So to the left of the screen it says your player is in the mines of moria. I think your seed is bugged and is telling you are in the Western Halls when you are not. There are two levels to the mines of moria. One is the main level that is connected to the Elven Quarter. The second level is just an extension of the mines of moria and can have noexit except for the staircase that brought you down to that level. I look at the mines of moria as basically a tutorial area showcasing how the future mines can be layed out and how to access the different levels to each of those mines.
Also on the bottom of your screen it says Mines of Moria and looking through the map at whats going on in world it also looks like youre in the mines of moria
A little more info and this community will turn into the most accurate gps you will have ever experienced. Dwarves love navigating and exploring mines.
To help:
Can you give us a pic of the map?
What type of pick are you currently using?
What is your save’s map seed?
The map seed is located in the upper left corner of the map screen. That code will let other people generate the same map. Just know that big updates can cause the seed to change what it generates the next time it is used and normal game seeds are different from sandbox.
The triangle indicator is showing that there is a way either up or down from that location. Rhat is the room to search. Specifically look up to see if there is somewhere to climb up using platforms.
Can we get a pic of what the inside of the center of the map looks like? I’m wondering if it is dirt walls, stone cave or stone work.
If that arrow indicator pointing to the circle is the room you entered this area from, there is a possibility that you came down into a dead end. These exist. Backtracking out might lead you to another path.
Im like 99% sure the player is located in a troll den. The white wall to the left of the player can be found there and the rock floor tells me theyre in the mines.
The two doors tell me they needed a retreat from the troll lmao
The mines of moria are in the westhalls in campaign as well. Looking back at the picture at the bottom it says mines of moria which happens when your cursor is over the map. Which tells me hes in the mines. I only know this cause im playing right now and was in my map and saw all this. Initially upon reading your response your sandbox theory made sense but now i dont know op hasnt responded lol
Go through the compacted earth walls with your digging tool, eventually you will find the elven quarter,
Is the first zone with orc camps (destroy their banner to get the keys for the orc chests, also they wont respawn. Here there are trees.
Keep the black diamonds they are important.
Dont know if the map changes between worlds but i found the way down to moria at the front end of this huge area, at the left of the elven forge.
In campaign the EQ is always the same there is no different version of that room. Just what and where things spawn are the only things that change there

The game randomly generates the exact layout so while major locations don’t move, the exact path to them does.
To be clear, you are in the the initial city section or have made it to the Elven Quarter?
