Brother Im trying so hard to get some value out of the prestige "Let the mountain swallow your gems". Like I have literally 4 runners and 8 miners + 6 lasers since the prestige started an hour ago and I still didnt see the whole "mountain swallows your gems" part.

This is getting me crazy man.

Like what am I supposed to do to reach the level of gems on the floor that it happens?!

Btw I didnt touch ballistic nor flame guys nor dynamite guys this run because on my first run yesterday till lvl 49 they didnt do anything usefull somehow and the dukes are stated as not finished so I dont rate them.

Which prestige do you mean, the one that gives carry capacity if there is 300+ ores? That is usually happening in later in the game, or when you have too many producers but not enough runners. When the mountain starts reclaiming ores you'll see them getting lifted and sucked into the mountain. If you didn't see it, it probably means you were nicely managing your production with retrieval.

Omg I did a whole playthrough now to lvl 50 with 4 unbuffed runners because I was actually expecting the mountain to at one point swallow all the gems 😂😂😂

Sorry dev I didn't realize that this mechanic is super hard to notice and I legit spammed the whole screen with gems till I realized the mountain sucking is constantly happening in the background of all the gems on the screen.

Thats my conclusion now haha

Yikes 💀☠️

Haha no worries if mountain eats some gems, in the late game with high production it will be happening constantly. Mountain starts sucking when there are 300+ gems on screen (I might add a counter for that) and you can theoretically upkeep collection with production so no gems go to waste but you really don't have to (there's a strategy to keep the pile growing so you can use that ability plus get gems closer etc).

Yea thats exactly what I did so I was wondering when the succ is starting. 

But now I realized its just a bit hard to see but its there!

I was expecting when it triggers that the whole screen gets wiped after some time 😁
