[13.X] Rails accidentally removed after "mining" train

Post by Tyrindor »

After you get a fast mining tool, especially if you have mods that add faster tools, it's far too easy to accidentally pickup the rail when picking up a train/cargo. I find myself always having to place the rail back down. Please make a similar change here as you did with ores patches in 0.13.5.

Re: Make it so you can't mine rails when picking up trains

I think it's a bug, cause that should have been fixed with 0.13 but seems not to be working with vehicles. Moved to bugs.
Cool suggestion: Eatable MOUSE-pointers.

That's not a bug, mining a vehicle acts like mining anything else and you mine what's under it when you finish mining it.

The only exception is resources when you start mining something on top of them you don't mine the resources until you let off the mine key and press it again.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Maybe not a bug, but certainly a defect. If you are removing a train, you don't necessarily want to remove the track as well.

A tiny human picking up trains sounds like a bug to me.
