Screenshot/Video:```#(Archived) Update 5 - Mining Issues
dusk belfry
zinc plover
Platform: steam
Issue : as posted elsewhere, no prompt text when trying to mine and usual keys don't to anything even when the shard is highlighted which usually means it's good to be mined. Can't progress star path or complete dreamlight quests in general. Tried all over and even restarted my game. Not just mining issues.
mighty wagon
Platform: Switch
Issue: My character would randomly stop mining a node even though there is still the node left. It has happened twice so far. I have to hit the button again in order for her to continue mining.
Update - Kristoff has also encountered this issue too since my Switch crashed and I lost progress. It’s the node by the cave that Ursula was in.
oak pond
Platform: Steam
Issue: I've been mining on Dazzle Beach and The Forest of Valor for Auqamarines for hours and I've not gotten a single one. When a node in each area let out a huge array of gems/coal etc there were no auqamarines
thorny parcel
Platform:Xbox
Issue: all of the mining spots on dazzle beach are not reloading and I haven't mined those at all today

Platform: Xbox
Issue: I haven't been able to find any shiny Citrine which I need for a star path task.
I also can't find any Onyx in order to make a pickaxe polish.
wooden vortex
Platform: Noticed on both Switch and PC
Issue: Now this could just be me since it's hard to verify. Whenever there's a timed material burst that little fanfare plays telling you that you got everything. Not once since the update has that happened when mining spots get that burst. I have purposefully cleared huge areas around some in every biome insuring nothing could hide and I swiveled that camera like a mad woman in case I missed something but I am pretty sure I didn't. It's not a daunting issue but for the sake of being thorough developers I thought I'd mention it.

Since posting this comment, I've gotten a few onyx, but still no shiny citrine

I just spent two hours, straight, mining in the glade and the plateau for shiny citrine. Didn't get a SINGLE one. Shiny emerald? Yep. Multiple times! Shiny tourmaline? That too! well over 100 regular gems. But shiny citrine? Not one. Not a SINGLE one

Acquired (1/2) shiny citrine after hours of mining, over the course of three days. Applied miracle axe potion and the star path quest isn’t counting this gem. X series X
random scarab
Platform: PC X=Box
Issue: Got two mining tasks. Vitalys Mines, Dazzle Beach. Went to mine on Dazzle Beach, but not only was that one completed, the Vitalys Mines was also completed. I was mining on Dazzle Beach, not in Vitalys Mines.

Been mining after "shiny Citrine" for the Star path duties, in Glade ...
On Switch : Also had 2 shiny Citrine that didn’t register on starpath while mining. One in Sunlit and the other in the glades
latent light
On switch: Two hours of mining in Frosted Heights and Sunlit Plateau to yield 0 Tourmaline. I have a starpath task to get 10 of them and by the looks of this I'm not going to be able to finish it. And when one was finally mined the game crashed.

Issue: Cannot use the Pickax potion. Nothing happens
Update: I restarted my console and tried again. I was able to use the potion but I did not see the animation that it is being used.
raven remnant
Platform: Steam / PC
Issue: Not sure if it’s a bug or if im doing something wrong, but I mined for six hours straight today by going around the map and did not get a single shiny citrine. I tried using different buddies, well-fed and even letting it drop to low energy, tried restarting my game. I now have over 200 regular citrine but I cannot for the life of me get a shiny citrine, let alone two
