Hey Guys,
Well today I wanted to build a mined throne room and for that I wanted a clean mountain side.
As you see on the first picture below I wanted to remove the dirt sticking out of the mountainside.
I figured one ladder would be enougth since they can reach every dirt block witch I wanted to be removed.
Turns out does not work 
I had to build ladders for each block. Would be great if the Hearthling could do the digging in a diangolar fashion. since it looks pretty stupid 
(in the back gorund you see the bigger operation.)
Would be a lovly addition but it works great this way.
Cheers Pyrotika
