Editing v0.31 Talk:Tree

Underground trees spawn in newly created suitable locations once their biome is uncovered. So far, this requires a Subterranean tile of soil, with a full soil wall underneath it. They do not spawn on subterranean soil tiles located above rock walls. From Toady's comments, I speculate that they will spawn on subterranean muddied tiles without a full soil wall beneath them. I have not tested this second hypothesis.[[User:The Architect|The Architect]] 05:53, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

::I have the surface level (z 0), then below that I have a whole z level of soil mined out (z -1).  Below that I have a whole z level of soil mined out (z -2).  Below that I have rock all mined out (z -3).  Plants grow on z -1, but not on z -2.  I think that confirms what you were saying.

-::::As of 0.31.25 the comments here might no longer be correct. See also http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=93501.msg2630579#msg2630579. It seems that trees ''always'' grow on soil. No matter what tile is under it. --[[User:SGdYy409Ls|SGdYy409Ls]] 12:04, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
-::::: I tried out tree growth very carefully now: {{version|0.31.25}}
-:::::  • Aboveground trees grow only on soil, never on mud.
-:::::  • Aboveground trees do not grow if the layer below is mined out. (Or grow after a long time only. Existing saplings will still grow, but no new saplings appear.)
-:::::  • Underground trees do grow on soil and muddied rock.
-:::::  • Underground trees do grow no matter what the layer below looks like.
-:::::  • No plants (trees/shrubs) grow on muddied constructed floors. (But you still can place farm plots there).
-:::::  • Saplings seem not to grow on a tile with items on it.

-Any list yet of the colours of the wood, and the products thereof?
-I know that at the very least, feather wood and the underground wood have different colours. --[[User:AndrDrew|AndrDrew]] 00:13, 6 May 2010
-'Saplings will not grow on a tile with items on it' Is this correct? In 40d saplings grew fine in occupied spaces but didn't mature into trees until the tile was cleared. --[[User:MLegion|MLegion]] 15:58, 17 August 2010 (UTC)
-== Erosion caused by cutting trees? ==
-So i embarked on a area that had 2 types of sand and was heavily forested. After i chopped down the trees near my wagon, the grass  tiles started to turn into sand ones, while the areas with small forest kept the grass.
-Erosion took a month or so.
-: are you sure it's erosion, or is it just dwarves tracking over it often and trampling it, like how they do with saplings/bushes?--[[Special:Contributions/75.6.250.65|75.6.250.65]] 22:54, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
-===Glumprongs Missing from New Version===
-I cannot find Glumprongs anywhere and I only embark in evil areas. Please post if you have evidence that they exist in the new version.--[[Special:Contributions/74.77.203.51|74.77.203.51]] 10:48, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
-:See {{bug|4133}}, this suggests the addition of grass in 0.31.19 has caused GOOD and EVIL plants to show up rarely or never. [[User:Hv|Hv]] 16:35, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
