Make one ant dig in Grow A Colony by checking selection, the dig prompt, a reachable location, and Building obstructions, with Update 6 evidence limits.
The archived Update 5.6 description said players could make ants dig exactly how they wanted, but it did not publish a fixed key or valid-terrain rules. In Update 6, select one ant, choose one visibly reachable location, use the current dig prompt, and keep the entrance and return route clear of Building placements.
Stop at the first step that does not match what you see.
Select one ant for a deliberate dig test rather than issuing several colony orders at once. Confirm the intended ant stays selected.
Start with an open, close area the ant can visibly approach. The public description does not define depth, terrain, or range rules.
Use the action shown by the live Update 6 interface. Do not substitute an old PC key for a missing mobile or controller button.
Check the entrance, both sides of nearby walls, and the route back before confirming the action.
If the ant will not reach the location, undo the most recent route-sensitive Building placement and test the same ant again.
Exit control, reselect one ant, use one close location, and test in a fresh server if the current prompt still does not match older advice.
Confirm the ant and location are selected, move to a simpler visible area, close Building or other menus, and read the current prompt again.
Try a closer unobstructed location and watch for a current interface message. Do not infer hidden depth or resource requirements without evidence.
Open the route, remove the newest placement, shorten the test, and verify the ant can cross the path without a dig action first.
Trust the live interface. The archived 5.6 headline establishes the feature, not an immutable input map.
One ant and one location make it possible to identify selection, prompt, terrain, or route failure.
Test ordinary movement across the same path before changing the dig input.
No complete official dig-validity table is published in the archived 5.6 or current 6 headline.
Revision: this route was reviewed for Update 6. Official descriptions establish only the claims explicitly labelled official; live prompts and dated observations supply the remaining checks.
Verify selection, one short action, and the exit state first.
Test whether the newest placement blocks the intended dig route.
Read the exact scope of the archived announcement.
Beetle Creature, broad QOL changes, and the limits of the public announcement.
Select one ant, choose one nearby reachable location, and use the current dig prompt while keeping the route open.
Check selection, live prompt, location reachability, Building obstruction, and control state in that order, then try a fresh server.
No permanent cross-platform key is supported by the archived announcement. Follow the current visible prompt.
The Update 6 QOL headline does not itemize a specific dig-control change. Recheck paths and the live prompt.
