Mining straight down sometimes causes player to fall through the map

exactly as the title says ive noticed that sometimes when mining straight down i fall straight through the map and then im stuck underneath everything until i can create a hole to get back up,

so far ive only seen this happen while using the terrain clearing mode with the hand drill not with the ore collecting mode (right click not left click)

will provide video next time this happens to me

repro:

- pick a spot

- look straight down in first person

- hold right mouse button

- do not stop holding the button until the player falls through the map

Not exactly the same, but went down in clearing mode, got maybe 3-4m to side of ore, cleared a bit towards and mined some only to discover that voxels was covering the tunnel up to the ground near me.

If you jetpack up and dig you can get back to the right side.

I had this happen

I wasn't sure what to do because the void of the planet still has gravity but I turned on my Jet-pack after a few kilometers and flew out a dormant volcano. What was strange is that my drill said their was an element a few meters from where a was drilling down when I fell.

I found the tunnel by clipping head so I could kind of see where tunnel was and then drilled through to it.
