[WF-General] Help with a test implementation of mining

[David K]

Hi Everone:

    I'm working with the Ubuntu Cyphesis setup.  What I wanted to do was 
create an iron ore node that
can be mined for iron ore.  It is almost complete - the node and ore 
both appear in game.  My problem
is that I cannot get the Mine.py file to work.  (The closest was an 
error message printed by Cyphesis.)
    I've had to completely delete my Ubuntu image twice now and 
reinstall as Ember crashes whenever
it connects to my server.
    Could someone show me a script that would create an iron_ore object 
in the world when a pick
axe is used on it and leave the iron_ore_node intact?  I've gone as far 
as I can and need some help
now.  Here are the relevant data files/objects:
