Bugs[edit]

  • 1.6.4
    • Placing the Digital Miner next to an already powered Redstone Conduit will crash the game, and upon restart, the world may be corrupted, possibly not showing in the world list, or the player will find a new Digital Miner in the spot and the pre-programmed one still in the player's inventory
    • Items aren't pulled into the inventory, but a Hopper on top will insert them
    • The ghost image in the Replace block slot cannot be removed only changed with another block
