Any way to keep getting earthquake loot post-rifts and pillars?

[loopuleasa]

I love cave basing, because of earthquakes where the entire ground becomes rock and stone pinata

But post rifts you kinda have to have pillars up because the bigger boulders become destructive

Any way to keep earthquakes in megabases post-rift (apart from not starting cave rifts)

Any creative methods?

I tried living with post-rift earthquakes but it is not as fun as pre-rift quakes (you also have to mine instead of having moles picke em up)

Doesn't directly address your point, but did you know that Woodie's wooden Hard Hat actually prevents earthquake fall damage? Not from the big boulders, but the random chip from the stone & flint.

Couldn't you just go outside of the range of the pillars when an earthquake starts? You can also start earthquakes on-demand with explosives.

Just wait for the rift to close, it should work as it used to do.

Yes, but dodging the quakes is not an issue to me

Not having minerals on the ground for moles to pickup is the issue
