radiant steppe
tawny night
Platform: Switch
Issue: unable to cover a hole back up after digging one
patent torrent
Platform: switch. Issue: have 2 digging spots behind scrooges shop but it won’t let me dig them up.
deep star
Switch
One spot appeared days after placing Wall-E house and I haven't been able to dig it up ever. She just shakes her head "no" when I try
pulsar dock
PC
Placed a rug outside and later a digging spot appeared over it, but cannot be dug unless rug is moved.
sharp otter
Platform: PS4
Issue: On the Breaking Bones quest for Scar, I dug on the 5th and final dig mound for the Lion’s Claw. However no item jumped out, no Claw went into my inventory and the quest tracker still says I’ve only collected 4/5. I have restarted the game and the glittery dig mound is gone but no claw still
sudden prairie
Platform: windows
Issue: My character cannot move bc I tried to dig in a spot that apparently you can't dig in

Update: I went back and tried to dig that same spot again and it let me, so I don't know why I couldn't dig it in the first place. I did try to dig it from a different angle originally, but that should not change it to the point where I have to close my game without saving
I also want to say that the exact same issue happens when a character stops being able to be pushed out of the way (like the exact same animation and everything, but a different trigger.) This wasn't what was happening in my original video, but after that video I had to close and reopen my game once again because buzz wasn't able to move out of my way. He is literally the smallest character. If that doesn't tell you what a game-breaking bug this is then I don't know what to say
real hearth
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Issue: I was digging with Mickey, and he became more "solid" and umoveable when I walked into him. But typically somewhat moveable when I was digging. Then he got in this one spot and trapped me and I was just walking in place, unable to do anything in the game cause I was in the middle of digging. I had to close out the game to get back to it.

Platform: windows
Issue: I have a digging spot that is partially under Scrooge's shop. My character will not dig it even though it appears as if I can. They just shake their head "no." I know that a few other people also posted about having a digging spot in the exact same place.
I had a thought on how to fix it: You guys made it so that foraging items respond daily. So, if they're in an area that's inaccessible to you, the next day they won't be. I think you should also do that for doing spots.
It would help with not only my issue, but also with people who have digging spots in a part of a biome that they haven't unlocked yet. As well as people who may have digging spots behind a house, or some other area that makes it inaccessible to them.

livid nebula
platform: pc, steam issue: whilst digging multiple holes in a row with a companion, the companion has been getting stuck in the way trapping us both- i've found that randomly clicking stuff can eventually free me but it just happens repeatedly no matter who the companion is (my digging companions are scar and merlin)
stoic karma
pc: I have the same issue as A spooky ghost above me - two digging spots partially under Scrooge's shop, and they're unable to be dug.
heavy scaffold
Platform: X-box
Issue: two spots I’m unable to dig up. One by Scrooges and one by Wall-E
lavish steppe
Platform: PC/Windows Issue: Diggable mound appearing on top of items and is undiggable. See screenshot. Have also had instances where these mounds right next to houses are undiggable.

Platform:PC dont know if this would really be a digging issue but it dropped to somewhere i cant reach

Digged a glowing spot and got thrown up in the sky through the valley on the otherside of the map 💀🤣
tired fulcrum
I've noticed that if I have scar as my companion and try digging and he's in the way I will end up stuck in a walking animation. I have to make sure scar is no where near me or I can't dig.

Platform: PC Steam
Issue: I've had a new digging spot spawn on the map but no matter how many times I attempt to dig it up it won't let me.

I found this happens when the digging spot is too close to a building. The only way I have found to dig it up is to move the building a few squares away from that digging spot.
