Tiny, invisible specks of dirt that kill me
I'm digging out the entire yard because it's fun, but when I'm jumping back down the hole, there are apparently tiny little invisible floating bits of dirt that my character sometimes hits and will kill me.

Is there any way to get rid of these bits? Dev, can you implement a code where once a certain 1x1x1 cube of dirt is 99.99% empty or something, it completely empties? These bits are so small that I literally cannot even see them, and yet they kill me. It's annoying.

I suspect it's not that they're so small that you can't see them, it's that they are actually invisible. I had to save and reload to get some invisible spots to show up.

the actual coding required to program diggable dirt like this is very hard to manage tbh, gold simulator has the issue, and subnaticua dropped the digging tool because of coding of dirt like this....

you cant fully resolve this issue

Something that would reduce the problem considerably is to have the drill or shovel clear an area even if you don't click directly on dirt. Then you aren't pixel hunting for a tiny floating speck.

a tiny pixel is a tiny pixel and a pixel is still a pixel

Your point?
Shane Feb 14 @ 8:35am 
im no expert but the experts cant fix the problem
thats my point

all i know is they is a issue with collapse dirt in games like this that present a issue no dev can resolve. for example gold simulator a massive bulldozer gets stopped it in its tracks because of a shard of dirt

in this game you die from the same shard of dirt

in subnaticua the devs gave up and said remove the code and tool for digging and bang it got removed because they cant solve it

a tiny pixel of dirt is a pixel of dirt

there are more than one solution to this and I'm sure the dev knows some of them.

maybe you should email the developer lmao

i'm constantly annoyed by very tiny floating or even invisible clumps

it aint happening

sounds to me like you got what you paid for

no need, like I said, I'm sure the dev knows several possible solutions to this. this is a joke of a problem to fix. but keep pretending it's rocket science :undyne:

It would be kill to get rid of this, but what I do to work around it is feather the boost from my jet pack while descending into the hole.
