Description
Digging is a skill of terraforming, or moving dirt around, it is used either to raise a tile, or lower one. The act of digging requires a shovel and increases several characteristics, body strength, body stamina, and mind logic
Method
Activate a shovel and right-click a tile (It is not possible to dig on Rock tiles) and select Dig. This will lower the ground and put 1x of the tile compound in your inventory. Please note, dirt is dug from corners of tiles and the corner of reference is where you were standing when the digging finished.
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 corner.
To check if a tile is flat, you can either right-click a tile and click -> flatten or by examaning a tiles borders. If all tile borders say 'The slope is flat', the tile is flat. You can also see the difference in height between one side and the other of a tile, by using examine on a 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're standing. For example, the slope is two dirts toward you, go to the other end of the tile border you examined and dig twice to level the edge in question.
Digging for rock
To start you must dig a reasonable distance above water, keep digging in one corner until you "hit rock" or you do not have enough skill to continue digging. Once you hit rock in one corner you then must dig in all other corners of the tile until they have all hit rock. When you hit rock in all four corners the rock tile will be uncovered.
Small digging guide
For those that had trouble with any of the above guides, here is a small picture that may clarify it.
This is the result of dropping a small amount of dirt on the corner of a tile.
