I've received a few messages about the dig skill not working underwater. For the record, this is not a bug. It used to work underwater until last week or so, but this is no longer the case. You are not supposed to be able to dig underwater.

I've been modifying locations that are affected by this change. If you find more, please report them to me via PM. Thank you.

...Digging under water is how many people make their living. I don't understand why it should not be possible to do this in game.

All the diamonds in the game are in the forests, just ask the scouts.

Great change. Wet sand is impervious to shovels.

These are not diamonds until the scout takes the coal that can be naturally found in forests, and using their tiger grip they crush the carbon down into diamond with the extreme pressure of their grip. This is how they can make so many diamond tipped arrows.

...There's really no point to the material type of the arrows.

And magic apparently.

More importantly, doing this has just sealed off access to a few nice magical devices. Unless there's some way I'm not thinking about, those wands are no longer accessible. I really hope some sort of change will be made to allow us back down there.

The entire point of this post was to tell Mira which things to fix. So instead of passively aggressively complaining about it, just go ahead and say what you think needs to be fixed.

Keep in mind the rooms are water or underwater. There is no ground in any of these rooms in which to dig which is why you cannot dig there. Perhaps there should be a type of room called "underwater ground" or "seafloor" but right now there is not.

Just unearth the items permanently and it's not an issue.
