2 straws = 1 branch in combustible power terms

This could be a good solution for all the excess straw that you get. However, wouldn't it also provide an abundant source of HQ fuel? I'm not sure how that would balance out.

Yeah, it kinda diminishes the importance of trees. Besides, burning coal with straw just seems silly.

It wouldn't. Because even in case the ratio between branch and straw would be set to 1:100 a farmer could still simply plant an immense wheat field to replace trees.

So i think this shouldn't be implemented.

I don't know if loftar could maybe code it so straw always counts as q10 fuel?

If nothing else, I think straw still needs more uses :D I filled up two troughs and my wheat production is only increasing.
