Gold Rush: The Game – Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Where is my shovel?
A: You already have this; press < and > to cycle through your items.
Q: MY vehicle/character is stuck; what do I do?
A: Open the map (M) and locate yourself, click on the icon you wish to get unstuck, and then press “Reset” These things will reset on your current claim.
Q: My gold bar vanished after I smelted it?
A: Don’t worry, go to the bank and you will see it there!
Q: Can I roll up the hoses and cables?
A: YES! Take one end of either the cable/hose and hold right-click.
Q: My truck bugged out and left the earth; what now?
A: Check your map; it’s bound to be there somewhere!!
Q: The game is lagging for me slightly; what should I do?
A: Go to advanced settings and lower your shadows; if that fails, lower the settings as a whole.
Q: Can I connect hoses/cables together directly?
A: No, cables have extension boxes that you can buy; water hoses will get the same soon, so you will need to use extra pumps.
Q: When I have gold, is it better to sell ore or smelt and sell the bar?
A: It is better to smelt the ore into a bar and sell, but watch the stock’s.
Q: Why is my gold count not going up when I collect gold?
A: Chances are you are not allowing the mats in the sluices to collect enough gold. Let them fill up, then clean them.
Q: I don’t have a crosshair when panning for gold!
A: First, make sure you are in gold picking mode (Press Shift); if you still don’t have a crosshair, make sure you are on the correct resolution!
Q: When I launch the game, I get on the menu but can’t do anything else?
A: Press Alt + Enter (to go to windowed mode), then change your settings (mainly resolution) to see if that helps!
Q: I hired workers, but they have not arrived yet?
A: Workers only work when you are not on the claim; when you hire a worker, be sure to assign them a role on some equipment.
Q: When should I take a loan out?
A: That is up to you; you could take one at the start and jump right into buying the hog pan with the pump; this will produce gold much faster than what it would with doing it by hand.
Q: I bought the wavetable; how the heck does this thing work?
A: You need a water source, a water pump, a power generator, a small yellow power cord, and a green water hose. Connect them up to the table and turn on the valve for the water and the switch for the power, both located on the wavetable.
Q: How do I enter gold picking mode?
A: Press Shift.
Q: I can’t see my crosshair when panning.
A: Try buying a new pan; some people say this works. Try changing your screen resolution. – This is a bug and will be fixed.
