Thoughts on the further development of Haven & Hearth? Feel free to opine!

ok. i'm not sure if the map is 5x5 supergrids of if they actually increased it to 7x7. so i'm going to show the numbers for both

a supergrid is 5000x5000 tiles = 25,000,000 tiles
5x5 supergrids = 25 supergrids = 625,000,000 tiles = 4.3 trees / 625 tiles = tree density of 0.68%
7x7 supergrids = 49 supergrids = 1,225,000,000 tiles = 4.3 trees / 1225 = tree density of 0.35%

so i think the estimate of 4.3 million trees is a little low

probably yea. but you also have to figure trees are thinner in grasslands and non existent in a lot of other terrains.

[02:36] <L4> Assuming a conservative 70 trees per minimap...
[02:36] <L4> There are 1750 just on a local map
[02:36] <L4> 43750 on a regional.
[02:36] <L4> Regional is... um shit, I forget
[02:36] <L4> 4th of a supergrid?
[02:37] <feri> I have no idea :3
[02:37] <L4> yep
[02:37] <L4> 175000 trees per supergrid
[02:38] <L4> And at present there are...
[02:38] <feri> 25 supergrids.
[02:38] <L4> 4375000 trees.

edit: yea i just read through that and he did the math wrong anyway. one local map is 16 minimaps so 1120 trees. 28000 on a regional. 112000 per grid. 2.8 million total.
i guess they never miss huh

Think of the palisades and timber houses we could all build ^^
I mean, there are hardly 300 active players playing simultaneously :D

I wonder how many of those 300 "players" are just alt accounts?

There are roughly 400000 trees on a supergrid, so on a map of 5x5 SGs, that'd be ten million trees. That is probably a somewhat conservative estimate.

Couldn't you just have it so that the trees produce 2 or 3 times as many apples on the growth tick if there's a hive near by?
