I laid this land bridge down to be able to harvest from them safely. I was mistakenly under the impression that they may submerge, but would return to the same spot.
Which is currently under test on a throw-away copy. In that version it has been 50 days w/o a return sighting.
I am wondering from the way it was phrased, if someone feels a particular pattern of harvest makes it less likely to have a negative impact. I would like for it to be a harvest-able node, not simply a one-shot deal. And not too mention that was a good bit of stone essentially wasted.

I had hoped by doing this I could avoid the likely chances of drowning. Two Levs live here, one is just beyond render range.

But if there is some method that can be used to minimize the chances of them vacating I am all turtle ears. Maybe a pattern to harvesting, a route that harms them the least i guess. anything.
