Fiddled and fiddled but it seems like if you raise the ground around the outer wall the earth will always clip through the wall. If you try to then get rid of the clipped area then it removes the whole raised section meaning you will ALWAYS have this area around your building thats a big hole.

Does anyone know if there is a way to raise the ground and keep it from clipping through your building? or is this just a limit of the engine?

Haven't found a way to fix it, but what I generally do is the following:

- Raise earth in such a way it overlaps the building area (before anything is built)
- use the pickaxe and hoe to create a clean edge
- build into the earth

It is still tricky, but this way you can get it to look somewhat decent. Still, I would dearly like a shovel or something that allows one to fill up small holes. Raise earth is a bit too much of a good thing sometimes and it behaves in a weird fashion sometimes.
