→Method: Minior rephrasing
==Method==
Activate a shovel and right-click a tile and select '''Dig'''. This will lower the [[ground]] and put one unit of the tile material in your [[inventory]] (if you have enough [[strength]] to carry it). Please note that the material is dug from corners or points of tiles, and the corner of reference is where you were standing when the digging finished. Where you right-click to select the dig command has absolutely no impact whatsoever on where you dig, where your avatars feet are is all that matters. The maximum slope you can dig on is ceil(3 x [your digging skill]). Ergo, e.g. A skill of 50.25 in digging will mean you can dig on , or adjacent to , a slope of up to 151 dirtsdirt.
It is not possible to dig on [[cliff]] or [[rock tile]]s. Rock tiles can be [[Mining|mined]] down though.
To lower a whole tile, you must stand in each of the four corners and dig. To raise a tile, you must drop dirt on the tile corners. Digging on tiles like [[clay]] produces material each dig, but does not lower the tile, except occasionally.
To check if a tile is flat, you can either right-click a tile and select '''[[flattening|Flatten]]''' or examine the tile's borders. If all tile borders say "The [[slope]] is level", then tile is flat. You can also see the difference in height between tile sides by examining the tile's borders. The reference will be a certain number of units of material either away from you or toward you relative to where you are standing. For example, if the slope is 2 dirts dirt steep ''towards'' you, go to the other end of the tile border you examined and dig twice to level the edge in question. To avoid confusion in the beginning when examining tile borders, stand near, or preferably on, the blank non-highlightable "mini-square" at the corner of a tile.
