What happened: A Miner on a very tall hill earned far too much gold. Every step of hill height added to its gold with no limit, so one Miner on a high mountain could pay for most of a game.
What was expected: Hills help a Miner, but not without end.
Steps: Build a Miner on a very tall hill (height 8 or more), upgrade it and watch its gold each wave.
How often: Every time.
What was fixed: A hill's height now counts up to 5 for a Miner's gold (its height bonus, collection and depth). Hills of 5 and lower are unchanged. The placement preview and the tower panel say when a hill counts as 5.
