Game development: Tree replanting

[Erik_the_Blue]

My forest spawned three deer one time, despite being rather spotty.

Huh, maybe I'm just extremely unlucky, then. I frequently get cows and sheep. ...which I have to then kill so they don't block tree growth, if they haven't already.

Edit: Just found a boar in my forest. =D

Im having trouble with planting trees. When i put a treeplanters pot with everything it needs on the herbalists table and wait for the white progress bar to fill, all my trees die. Why? Am I doing it wrong? How can i tell when the tree is ready?

Well, if you're full industry, you need someone who isn't to plant it. If you're not, then you just have bad luck and need to keep trying.

It takes a few hours for the tree to germinate, at which point it may fail, depending on how "nature" oriented you are. The tree will live for an additional eight real-world hours after that before dieing in the pot. Get it planted before then, or else you loose them all.
