Construction failed disabled on graves

[Neotic]

it should be disabled because, how do you possible fail on digging a hole? It doesnt make much sense really.

its a deep, vertical hole....destabilize the sides and the walls collapse into the hole giving you a shallow depression - no longer a grave.

Ever dig a deep hole at the beach?

i can get a grave failing on sand but on dirt it would have to be nearly intentional to destabilize it

I agree : its not a hard task at all.

Hey, does digging a grave use the mining skill?

It surprisingly uses the construction skill

What, you never built a hole? It is anti-building skill. You build by anti-building. Or something. D:

That said, for simplicity sake I think it is fine. Not that it fails often, and even if it does it takes almost no time to do.

There was a rather humorous report about this on reddit a while back.
https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/5pcnvi/something_that_always_bothered_me_about_graves/

In the comments Tynan originally called this a bug, but later on someone pointed out that it could fail due to the ground collapsing (as mentioned above by Limdood), which Tynan thought was a good point. (So failed grave construction is probably WAD and intended).
