      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

For sand I could understand, but with the new addition of the masive gravel layer, it is quickly annoying to dig close to the surface

Support beams are for preventing cave ins. Any other use is not supported, so they are probably going to behave oddly.

If I am digging underground and gravel fall on my head, is it considerd a cave in?

 

PS Schist gravel (the green one) display as Gabbro gravel (there is 2 Gabbro gravels blocks).

No. A cave in is when a raw stone block is mined and it turns all of the other stone blocks around it into cobblestone and collapses.

 

You'll need to be more clear about exactly what you mean in the PS. How is it displaying as gabbro gravel? In NEI? Using WAILA? The tooltip on the item in your inventory? The texture?

Fair enough for the cave in.

 

Well, in tooltip, yes. If you look for gravel in creative or nei, you can see that the green gravel is Gabbro gravel in the tooltip. I you search for Gabbro, you see the 2 gravels and if you look for Schist, there is none.

Creative and NEI bugs are extremely low priority. TFC is 'Survival as it should have been'

... But If I find legit schist, it will say "Gabbro" in the tooltip... I discovered the problem in creative/nei, but I could run into it by playing 100% legit

You can see both search result in NEI and creative, The mouse is over the green gravel, you can see it in the nei search. It's gabbro, but the gabbro gravel is right next to it.

Getting back at the topic mining surface ore veins becomes tedious due to gravel constantly falling in the mine and it wrecks the terrain I don't think this is intended but it is a problem that follows from the support beams being unable to hold up gravel. What was the reason that support beams hold up dirt anyway? I guess this was the reason but I'm not sure I'm new. I hope I explained why I find this is a problem, maybe not intended but it should be addressed.
