Auto miner 1 is the only miner that affected by the "crystal collection" research. I think that's intentional but not completely sure on that...

My strategy with her was just stick and move. Easiest method for ranged damage is to just stock up on rocks and use the "throw rock" skill as that does a consistent 5 damage to her. As someone else has said you can only really hit her in melee once or twice between attacks, as she can smack you away when she uses certain attacks.
If you just want to fight her at range the little outcrop with the tree that you can reach by jumping onto the part of the pillar and then jumping to it will make it so you don't have to deal with the tar spawns, but it will make avoiding her attacks a bit harder with the small amount of space you got, especially the aoe attacks like the bouncing slime ball and the slime eruption.
I've noticed that you can't place a support right next to the spot above the entrance to the cave, yet I can place one right in-front of the entrance no problem.
Also it slightly irks me that the opening there is only wide enough for the normal elevator and not the freight elevator. Makes sense from a game design stand point, but it just bothers me a small bit.
Also saving doesn't save all the playable character's weights, just the currently active one's, which also bothers me a small bit.
Trying to jump off the ramps is ultra finicky, let alone having the speed to get either the shake or the N that require using a ramp to get to. The other letters you can just get dismounted and the other food items are easy to reach by comparison. That and the grind rails are really... touchy? a small bit glitchy, esp the rails that go upward, as the grindrail under the A just has you sit at the apex of it without moving, and the two rails that lead to the K, if you grind on them just right, can give you millions of points as long as you keep grinding as the game keeps repeating the grinding motion over and over.
But aside from those this is a really good skateboard sim, and really fits the PS1 tone it was aiming for. Almost a shame you can't Pre-Fatten Mac on the character select screen to see what her cap weight is, but it's probably for the best.
