40d:Tree
Across the world, trees can found littering the landscape. They are a great renewable source of wood, and there are many different varieties that grow in different biomes.
Trees are a type of map tile, not constructions, similar to solid rock or bushes. They must be designated for removal from the designations menu chop trees, which will instruct dwarves with the woodcutter skill to grab an axe and begin singing merilly (while also chopping down the tree).
Trees grow from saplings, which start growing randomly on outdoor soil tiles. Saplings can be destroyed by heavy traffic. To grow from a sapling to a tree takes three years.
Trees viewed from one tile above look like coloured stone blocks floating in the air.
Trees also gain names near elven settlements. Although it is unclear what effect this has on gameplay, if any at all.
