o, i didnt read the entire 7 pages but i tihknk i can explain the problem, the vaccum pulls in those air pieces, and when you point it to the right weres theres nothing, it wants to make air pieces but cant, so it crashes.

I'd like to apologize for the vacuum crash! Somehow we overlooked it in testing. We have actually added the following fixes:
1. Vacuum crash fixed

The crash already having been fixed (and discussed) I'm pretty sure they know.

Weird thing is that I don't get a crash when I vacuum to the right hand side of the screen (even at the edge with the vacuum off-screen).

For some reason my game didnt get saved even though i pressed the save button.

I've never understood why mining games end up as such a (short lived) obsession for me. Something about the gathering of things that are then made into more useful things has some sort of draw to it.

Great game, by the way; would love to see the concept expanded on, but it's a solid game at the moment.

The new build is up!------->https://www.digipen.edu/?id=1170&proj=24629

To re-iterate the following fixes have been added:
1. Vacuum crash fixed
2. Loss of Water/Lava Resistance upon save/load fixed
3. Dig straight key. Makes player dig sideways without stepping up terrain. defaulted to SHIFT (all keys can be customized from the options menu)

Weird thing is that I don't get a crash when I vacuum to the right hand side of the screen (even at the edge with the vacuum off-screen).

Most likely you've downloaded the newest version in which it is fixed!

For some reason my game didnt get saved even though i pressed the save button.

I assume the problem is coming from when we thought it wise to only allow saving when standing on solid ground. However when a player attempts to save but cannot there is no onscreen message such as "Cannot Save. Stand on ground" so it just appears to be broken. We didn't want players jumping from a deathly height and saving just before they hit the ground there by creating a cursed profile. But it seems we've lifted that restriction, for better or worse. Messing around with the save button in the new build a bit, I was able to save every time. Download the newest version and see if the problem still persists. If it does please provide any instructions that would allow us to replicate the bug.

Enjoy!

i crashed when i was digging at the right of rainy ruins, i think it crashes when you use the vacum to the right of the screen, were theres nothing.

Good to know this is a known bug then.  I think the "crash" stage of the game would be vastly improved by the addition of autosaving.

They just fixed the vacuum, Aqizzar.

That said, autosaving might be a nice addition anyway, so long as it just restarts Diggit right at the lab on the surface.

i think i know a good feature that you could add inthe future,. you could make other starting terrains, like mars, venus, or pluto.

If you are using vista, remember to run such programs as administrator, or the program will lack the privileges to create and alter files.

[Roboboy33]

im using windows 7

[Aklyon]

Same here, but my saves are working fine. Do you have UAC on?

[Roboboy33]

i can control my account and edit my pass and stuff, but im not an admin.

[Flare]

It sounds like the program doesn't have high enough permission to create or modify your save files. The solutions I can think of is logging onto the admin account and deactivating the security walls in the way, or activating admin privileges when running the game, either way you will need to get into that account.

Or Right click>Run as Admin.
