Get metal shovel.
Dig until dirt explodes from bag.
Continue dig, dirts fly all over floor.
Stockpile dirts from bag.
Shift + click floor dirt to picking it all up easy.
Stockpiling more.
Repeat until satisfy.
Move stockpile with wheelbarrow to do what with pleasing.

If you don't plan to need any of the dirt for further leveling or have stockpiled enough you can pave a spot you've already leveled near where you are currently working and simply drop dirt on it from inventory

In case you end up with too many stockpiles, remember that you can also use 'destroy' them.

This is something i always did and nobody else ever did, and everyone was constantly saying "I HAVE TOO MUCH DIRT". And i just look at them disappointed.

Unless i was doing something slow and inefficient and everyone else was doing something better i never knew about, because that's plausible.

Yeah, one of those "undocumented" commands you should look up. I think there's a couple places, and I don't think either has all these commands

Might be a couple that were missed, but usually try ctrl clicks and such and you get surprising results.

This should appear ingame in a large popup window. Which is damn easy to do, but helps new players a lot!
