Many environments get cold enough for water to freeze in winter. When this happens, any water that is exposed above ground will [[ice|freeze into ice]]. However, water a single tile away that is in an underground tunnel will not freeze. When ice walls thaw, they always leave a 7/7 water tile regardless of how much water may have been present when the ice formed. | Many environments get cold enough for water to freeze in winter.

Mining ice can produce chunks of ice. Taking these chunks into a stone layer will cause it to eventually melt, turning it into a "water" item (much like those hauled in [[bucket]]s) which can't be used for anything. {{Bug|360}} | Mining ice can produce chunks of ice.
