If your going to break mine supports to clear space be sure to use a miners helmet and be exactly centered on the grid square so the maximum cave in rocks that can hit you is only one.

How does one stay centered on the tile when trying to destroy something? I don't think I've seen this advice/trick before.

Turn the grid on and do your best to center yourself. Im quite sure centering programs are out there for exact centering. They were used last world for mining. I just do so by eye. And yes from all my mining experience it does minimize the number of hits. I've had my share of cave ins.

Control + Z with union client makes it so every tile you click on centres you to it

Seems to me that that tip is missing a related dependency.
- Building/placing the mine-post so that you can access it from a tile's center.

Now THAT makes sense. Other than this, why would you want to build it off-center? Makes it harder to follow the safety zone circle.

I don't know if this is on here but when digging clay if you keep your survival at 1 you will get ten times the clay.

Mmm, is that "10 times" a general educated guess based on one clay node. Or did you do some testing on multiple different-q clay nodes. (just asking, to see what drops out. Might be something useful.)

to tell the truth I have done no test. me and my friends just use alts with survival of just 1. I can stay on the same spot and dig non stop with survival of 1 and I dug over 4500 clay from the same spot . my friend who just started joined and dug it at like 4 survival and I had to walk north just to find clay after digging like 200 clay. ill test but it will take some time . just try your most liked place to get clay and make a new guy and leave the survival alone at 1 and im sure you will get more just not sure how much . I think our clay spot is like 30 if that and with survival of more then one you dig it out fast
but with 1 I never have to move lol
