: This message also appears when mining down a floor and roof is too high, Can only be fixed by collapsing all affected tiles and re-mining. (In other words, if you want the tile flat collapse it and re-mine, if you want to lower it collapse all surrounding tiles and re-mine.)
;You are too unskilled to mine here.
:Occurs when trying to mine a rock tile in which you are not skilled enough to mine. The max slope at which you can mine is 3x your mining skill.

; A dangerous crack is starting to form You hear crumbling on the other side of the wall and the floor. You will have starts to find another waycrack. [The cave shudders from some imbalanceshaft would be too steep and unstable.]
: This message appears when undermining previous tile mined above, as in a steep upwards dropshaft would be created. There is no fix for this, though mining another wall, and changing tunnel direction, may work. Going from the other side down should work.
; A felled tree ''<item name>'' on the surface disturbs your operation. : This message appears when an item like a felled tree , an altar, a forge, large chest or other item is laying over on the surface of over or near the tile where the you are attempting to mine or tunnel will be created. Occurs when mining from Move the inside outitem to proceed.
; A surface highway interferes with your tunneling operation.
: This message appears when tunneling would break through a highway on the surface.
; An altar The current tile needs a flat border level with the bottom of (deity) on the surface disturbs your operationadjacent cave entrance. : This message appears when an altar is directly above the tile you are trying need to surface mine (possibly near the entrance?). Push bottom slope of the altar adjacent tile to another match the slope of the mine entrance, only when creating a multi-tileentrance.
; Current The current tile needs a flat border to correspond to lower part of face the same direction as the adjacent cave entrance. : This message appears when you need to surface mine the bottom slope of the adjacent tile to match Adjacent entrance tiles must all face the slope of the mine entrance, only when creating a multi-tile entrancesame direction.
; Lowering the floor further with such a high ceiling would make the cavern unstable. : This message appears when the ceiling is too high above the floor.
; The cave walls sound hollowecho strangely. A dangerous side shaft could emerge. [The cave shudders There must be an open tunnel diagonal from the wall you are mining, and you would need to approach it from some imbalancea different direction.]
: This message appears when the tile being mined shares a single corner with an existing tunnel. To continue, adjacent tiles must be mined out before mining can continue on this tile. See example on the right.
; The cave walls look very unstable. You cannot keep Mining here would open a cave exit, but there aren't enough solid walls to support it, so you stop mining here. : This message appears when mining close to the top of the rock layer. The ceiling of the newly mined tile would break the rock layerin a way that would try to form an impossible entrance. Can This can sometimes be avoided by mining downwards or by lowering the mine floor and opening the new tile a bit lower.
; The cave walls look very unstable and dirt flows in. You Mining here would be buried open a cave exit, but the dirt above would bury you alive, so you stop mining. : This message appears when the tile being mined will break out to the surface, but the surface is not exposed rock. To open the entrance, the rock on the surface must be fully exposed. To continue mining forward this can sometimes be avoided by mining downwards or by lowering the mine floor and opening the new tile a bit lower.
;The ceiling is too close.
: This message appears occasionally when mining the floor down. The cause is unknown.
; You cannot create a tunnel here. The ground sounds strangely hollow , and brittle. You have to abandon there must be open space under the surface that would make the mining operationentrance unstable.
:This message appears when there's already a tunnel on the tile being tunneled. An entrance cannot be mined here.
; The mountainside would risk You hear crumblingbeneath your feet. You cannot The tunnel hereto the open cave underneath would be far too steep and unstable.
: Occurs when opening a new tunnel from the surface. This message appears when there is already a tunnel to the back or the sides of the entrance tile or if a tunnel is ahead but too far down to connect to. Surface mine down to reduce the slopes, then attempt to tunnel again.
; The mountainside would risk crumbling. You can't open a hole heretunnel on a surface this steep.
: This message appears when attempting to create a mine entrance on a rock tile that is too steep. The maximum slope is 270.
; The topology You realize you can't open a tunnel here makes it impossible to mine in a good way, because the surface is too flat.
: This message appears when trying to create a mine entrance on a perfectly flat rock tile. One corner must be lowered with surface mining to continue.<br>This can also occur if both corners nearest the lowest corner are the same height.<br>Has also been reported underground, probably when mining that tile would create a flat mine entrance. Mining downwards may work in this case.
; The roof sounds strangely hollow and you You notice dirt flowing in, so you stop mining. Breaking through the ceiling here would bury you alive.
: This message appears when mining the ceiling too close to the surface and it is not dug to rock on the surface.
: Also occurs when trying to open a tunnel in which the northwest corner of the tile being mined is at or more than 12 dirts below the water table.
; The roof sounds strangely hollowdangerously weak and you stop mining. You It must mine be too close to the other corners if you want rock surface to create an openingcontinue.: This message appears when mining a cave indicates the rock layer above is very close to the ceiling , so there is no more room to the outside tile corners heightmine further.
; The roof rock sounds dangerously weak hollow, and you must abandon this attemptwould breach a cave ceiling. You need to tunnel to proceed. : This message appears when trying to indicates the rock layer [[surface mining|surface mine]] above is very close to an open tile underground, and you are already at the ceiling, so there is no more room to height of the mine further.
; The rock sounds hollow, you will need to tunnel You are not allowed to continue remove that reinforcement.: This message appears when trying you have tried to [[surface mining|surface mine]] above an open into a reinforced tile underground, and that you are already at the ceiling height of the minedo not have permission to remove.
; The rock cave wall is too hard to minealready destroyed, so you stop mining. : This message appears when you have tried to mine into after a reinforced tile or more rarely, happens with stacked action when the wall breaks before and you run out of still have mining actions left in your action queue (i.e. trying to mine thin air).
; This tile is protected by the gods. You can not mine here.
; There is no space to mine here. Clear the area first.
: This message appears when the tile occupied by the player has contains 100 a pile of items. Clear the area or move the character onto another tile and make a new pile of shards.
; You cannot have cave entrances meeting diagonally.
: This message appears when tunneling on the surface. This means the tile you are attempting to excavate is actually an ore vein. There's nothing to do about it, you simply have to make your entrance on another tile.
''Note that if you make the entrance one tile below the vein, the tunnel will open right into the vein and cannot be extended until the vein is depleted. The best course of action at this point would probably be to mine out a rock tile next to the one you get this message on.''
; You hear falling rocks from the other side of the wall. A deep shaft will probably emerge.
: This message appears when there is already another mine nearby, but there is too much of a height difference to connect the two mines.
; You cannot keep mining create a tunnel here. The stone under the surface is something harder than normal rock is unusually hard. : The This message appears when attempting to open a tunnel directly onto a vein , a reinforced tile or a rock tile with salt. ; You cannot reach the ceiling. : This message appears when you can't mine the ceiling any higher.
; You are not allowed to mine here.
: Deed permissions have disabled mining, and . (PvP deeds may require at least one [[spirit templar]] exists to uphold the law.)
; You are too unskilled not skilled enough to mine hereon such steep slopes.
: This message appears when trying to surface mine higher than your skill allows. Freedom Formula: 3 x Mining Skill. Epic Formula: 1 x Mining Skill (Not-curved).
;You cannot reach the ceiling.
:Occurs when trying to mine the cave ceiling that is more than 61 height away from the floor.
;You need at least 21 Mining skill to install a stone or metal mine door.
:Occurs when attempting to install a metal or stone mine door without 21 Mining skill
