That's right! The power to enhance your gameplay experience is in your hands! See, if you go into your mouse settings, you'll find something called "clicklock". This amazing little feature let's you mine and build and chop trees, basically hands free!

Is it cheating? I dunno, depends on your definition of "cheating". I say if it makes the game more fun for you, go for it!

Thanks for reading, hope I helped some people out :)

OR, you can just press CTRL.

I think he meant so you can walk away from your computer and do other things while you mine :p

Exactly! You get it. I like that. :)
 
Might as well later consider a feature where the player turns into an automated bot and task him to mine out the entire world while you're in Costa Rica ballin' in some high end motel from the money you got by enslaving characters

Obviously, I'm seeing this a bit too convenient of a feature.
There are also a bunch of odd problems this can cause.
Imagine, thread after thread of people complaining about somehow discovering a 3x2 hole going straight through their house right in the middle of their house after taking a number 2 in the stalls.
What's that? Limit it to your desired blocks/entities?
How would THAT work? Within range only or will the player automatically walk up to it, making him find a small hotspot of iron in some hole underground that you would never notice because there's zero lighting?
I can go on with this.

It's actually not as complicated as you think though. And a simple click deactivates it. It may be too convenient for you, and that's fine! We all have our own way of playing! :)

The complex part behind this is the laws behind this system.
I mean, surely you didn't just mean that there's an auto-mine on a single block space, right?
Right?
 
Thanks for the info!
Will forsure try this out!

Wait, what? This is a suggestion, not a thing within the game :V

It's not a suggestion. This is a Windows OS feature (that already exists) that you can take advantage of for Terraria.
 
I'm sorry, I didn't think any of what I said indicated that this was a suggestion. Yes, it is indeed a windows OS feature. It's funny that I just discovered it recently. Would have come in handy a long time ago, lol.
 
Wadda you know? Even my old XP has it! *starts mining*

Thank you, my friend! Glad I could help :)
 
Sounds interesting! Thankyou for the tip!
 
It's an interesting feature, but I'm not a fan of ZPGs so I see no need to turn Terraria into one.
 
I ended up turning it off, it became annoying. Still, nice idea for those who suffer RSI.
 
I might try this, considering I'm not the most patient of people.
