Floating voxels in gravity should turn to pick-up deposits.

This is largely a cosmetic feedback. There are naturally occurring voxel blocks of earth that sit and float in defiance of gravity. If you fly into one with the jetpack or a ship, prepare for damage. These happen naturally, or when someone is drilling.

Essentially the request here is that if in non-zero gravity, any voxels that are determined to be not connected to the core planet (or asteroid) anymore, should vanish, or ideally turn into a deposit of whatever ore it might be made of that you could pick up . In SE1, there was always that maddening tiny chunk of floating stone that was too small for your drill to drill and would forever be a hazard to buggies or low flying grids/space buddies. The engine should recognize when a voxel is 'unsupported' and make it go away or if someone is nearby make it turn into something that would fall to the ground and be able to be picked up.
