planets bottom level core are boring

    Agree. I wish you could end up on the other surface of the planet if you dug through the core like this:

    -Surface
    -Underground
    -Core
    -Underground
    -Surface

    By all rights, it shouldn't be possible to get even close to the magma, since A: on an earth-sized planet, surface-to-bottom-of-crust is approximately 10 km on land. Sure, in Starbound, we can traverse a planet in 30 minutes, but I like to think that circling back just means we're going round whatever continent we're on (or some similar area in ocean type planets, like an area surrounded by storms or some other form of natural barrier), which would make that achievement a little less dramatic. And B: we'd get crushed by the pressure. You'd think we'd need to use an EPP for that, since it's a little more of an issue than "this place is really cold" or "this place is really hot". Going right through the core would result in you getting trapped in the center of the planet's gravity, which would present issues even if you had some ridiculous pressure resistance system.
