A '''rock tile''' is a [[tile]] of rock on the ground.
On rock tiles you ==Notes==*Players can [[Prospecting|prospect]] for ore, create [[mining|cave entrances]], and terraform iton rock tiles.
*Rock tile terraforming with a pickaxe works in the same way as [[digging]] dirt. Stand on the corner you want to ''lower'', activate a pickaxe, right-click a rock tile, and select ''Mining'' (Note: If . Every few actions you are surfacing you need ''lower'' the corner by 1 dirt. All four tiles around surrounding the corner must be exposed to rock for this to work. *Players can raise a corner of an exposed rock tile by activating a [[concrete]], right-clicking the corner that you are surfacing standing on and want raised, and selecting 'raise corner'. The slopes away from that corner cannot be higher than 26 to be Rock raised. *Players can dig down to the rock layer by [[digging]] away all of the [[dirt]] (from each corner) which rests on top of it. On [[Freedom]] Isles, the soil depth varies wildly and may reach as much as 300 dirts to the rock layer, though this is very rare. The average depth is, however, [[Talk:Rock_tile#Soil_Depth|widely contested]], and the factors such as wellslope, elevation, and random chance strongly affect the depth at which the rock layer is found.)It is advisable to dig a deep pit to discover the rock layer before attempting to create sufficient space to create a mine, as this aids planning and also avoids time being wasted in unsuitable mine locations. Every few actions you ''lower'' Depending on location, the rock layer may or may not be below the corner by 1 dirtwater level. * The following types of [[Resource nodes]] can spawn on Rock tiles: [[Mineral debris]], [[Rubble]], [[Snow pile]] and [[Lichen]].
You can not raise a rock tile, but you can raise the corner by dropping [[Pile of dirt|dirt]] or [[heap of sand|sand]] on it.
