how to tunnel with mining ship

[Old Mate]

I've got my first basic mining ship and it works fine, but I don't know how to toggle the secondary action where it doesn't collect ore but instead tunnels.

Right-click

that doesn't work

When your in your ship click G then on the left side you will see a list there's one that says block tools click on that then add that one to your hotbar then it's right click to collect then right click to drill and not collect

If you want to actually toggle it to make it continue tunneling without holding the mouse button down... use this one weird trick... start it with the right mouse button and while holding that down hit I to enter the inventory screen, you can then release the mouse button and the drills will continue to tunnel until you hit a mouse button again. ^.^
