I have re-installed minecolony 2 times now, killed the miner 6 six times, and given him 50 pickaxes in his chest and the shovel just stays in his chest. But yet he continues to just stand by his chest and hit it, or he will wander off and hit grass until i kill him.
I have moved his chest 3 times thinking that may be the cause, but I honestly have no clue, he is the only worker that doesn't work so far. Any ideas?
Side note: How do you post a sign on a chest, I just keep opening the chest and just get frustrated -Builder says he needs 90, but I have no clue as to what he needs.

1. The miner is one of the buggiest workers ever. Try not to build a miner in a superflat world. If you're not in a superflat, then I don't know. 2. You can't put a sign on a chest. When you want an upgrade, it's in the GUI accessible via the chest. 3. When the builder says he needs <number>, it means he needs stone, or ID 1. Hope it helped.

the miner not only needs shovels and pickaxes, but also needs torches. give them a stack or torches and see if it helps.

I have given him a shovel, a pickaxe and torches, but he continues to just stand there hit grass, the town hall, or the box and continues to ask for more pickaxes. I may just throw in the towel with the miner and just not have one for my town.
As for the chest and signs. I figured it out, Research is vital ;D

is your miner near a cliff, ravine, or large underground tunnels - that can throw them off sometimes ??
Also sometimes recalling the miner to the chest using the interface helps, as does letting a full night cycle run...
Do you have any other mods installed ?

No, he is on a small mound, two blocks higher than most of the other buildings. When I recall the miner, he gets stuck in the roof of his hut and then dies.... I only have single player commands installed on my computer as the only other mod, then of course optifine.
I will try and do a full day cycle and see what happens, but not holding my breath anymore haha
edit:
Moved the miners camp onto the same level as everyone else, update to 1.2.5, and placed it in an entirely new spot. Yet he still does nothing, and I have run through complete cycles numerous times

He does have issues with lava and water. But him just standing there is something i haven't seen unless hes waiting for some tools.

He stands there saying he needs another pickaxe, so I give him one, then he just stands there asking for more or just hits the box/air over and over again.

Make sure you put the tools in his chest. Don't try to give them directly to the worker.
