==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 In order to dig and have the dirt drop as a pile on the ground rather than directly into the inventory, the keybind dig_to_pile must be used. 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 3 x [your digging skill]. e.g. A skill of 50.25 in digging will mean you can dig on, or adjacent to, a slope of up to 151 dirt.
It is not possible to dig on [[cliff]] or [[rock tile]]s. Rock tiles can be [[Mining|mined]] down though.
