Tree
Description
Trees can be cut down by using an axe as well as with a myriad of other tools. Sprouts can be picked from trees using a sickle, and can be used to plant new trees elsewhere. Trees that are left sprouting long enough will plant sprouts nearby on their own.
There are different types of trees, primarily grouped by their lumber production. Non-lumber trees can be harvested while in season, usually with a sickle. See the seasons article for specific harvest times.
Tree Types
Lumber Trees
Lumber trees give large amounts of wood when chopped at an old age. Most types of wood also have special properties.
- Birch - Birchwood burns better than other wood.
- Cedar - Items made of cedarwood decay slower than other items; also good for arrows.
- Pine - Pinewood has no special properties, but pines are abundant and grow fast.
- Oak - Items made of oakwood take less damage, but oaks are rare. An oak will kill other trees within 1 tile.
- Willow - Willowwood is good for bows and fishing rods. A willow will kill other trees within 2 tiles.
Fruit Trees
Fruit trees have fruits which can be harvested during harvest season, but they give very little wood.
- Apple - apples
- Cherry - cherries
- Lemon - lemons
- Maple - maple sap (using a container, like a bucket - not a sickle)
- Olive - olives
Bushes
Bushes don't give any wood at all when chopped down. Like fruit trees, they can also be harvested.
Notes
- Trees generally take several weeks to grow to "old" or "very old", which are the prime types for cutting.
- Trees infected by mycelium do not produce fruit.
