How do you Lift A boulder!!??

Boulders get smaller when you chip stone from them. You can only lift them when they reach their smallest size.

other than boulder model changing, you cna check the boulder's size by hovring your cursor over it while pressing "shift" key. It will show the resfile of object (most likely a standard custom client feature) and is it's for example "gneiss3" that means its largest possible chunk of gneiss. Reducing it all the way to 1 or 0 will make the boulder liftable.

If you just need to get rid of boulder as fast as possible, you can simply turn it into runestone or quern even if its unliftably large. In my personal opinion you waste stone this way but it doesn't really matter if the area you live in has plenty of boulders of the same type.

I use Amber client, and I didn't find that feature (regarding shift key). What client do you use? Or how to turn this feature on in Amber client?

how to turn this feature on in Amber client?

Press SHIFT+i once, you'll see a message saying that "resource info on shift/ctrl+shift is now turned on". You get objects info by mouse-over-ing things with SHIFT and you can check ground tiles (i.e. what's that peculiar color of mine tile means or how is this particular land biome called) with ctrl+shift.

"Reading notes to custom client is your friend". A lot of not-so-obvious but extremely useful hotkeys listed there.

Boulders get smaller when you chip stone from them. You can only lift them when they reach their smallest size.

I have lifted it at the second smallest also. Should be a way to roll the big boulders or something, though. They can be in the way quite easily.

Fastest way to get rid of boulder is to turn it into Runestone.
