Small shovel problem since the last update beta mode

[CromCruach]

Hello, as the title says, since the last update (yesterday evening) and I am in beta mode, the shovel in "earth removal" mode works less well than before, sometimes it no longer works and you have to change location to make it work again, strange.....
Thank you for this great game that has kept me busy for more than 300 hours

300 hours is impressive. Any chance you could get some sort of video of the issue and some more details on what you'd like to see? We're trying to sort the shovel (the locked into the voxel world digging and catapulting you up is, understably, an issue we want to sort). Feedback is appreciated so we can make it better.

In fact I have made progress in researching what has been modified, it is the distance.
You have increased the distance at which we can dig the earth, and that is very good, on the other hand, you have also modified the possibility of removing earth at a short distance, it is no longer possible to do this in front of our feet, we must be further away, and that is less good.
Thank you for putting the possibility back at short, or very short distance.
Thank you

Unfortunately we had to sacrifice this because digging close to the players feet would alot of the time shoot the player up or sink them through the ground. This way we know the player is safe. We will look at improving it more in the future when we have a solution.

OK, thank you very much for the feedback, no problem, besides, to be honest, as much as yesterday evening, after the update, it surprised me, as much now that I've become familiar with this change, in fact, it's okay, it's a knack to take, I think there are many other things to make this game even better, in any case, I'm having a blast, like my son and some friends who also play it, can't wait for the coop :)
Thanks again, I'll continue my mine and my fortress ...... see you soon
