Unusually high tree stunting rate

Post by SovietUnion »

Out of 18 trees, 6 have stunted (got stuck) in various growth stages. That's 1/3 of all trees. And this keeps happening all the time, not just this batch.

Isn't the tree stunting mechanic broken? I remember this rate was a LOT lower. This doesn't seem to be bad luck anymore.

I appreciate any insight. Thanks!

Ceterum censeo: Tree stunting should be turned from completely halting growth to just reducing the speed they grow by 1/x (with x>1) of current speed.

So, even if i don't see percentage message while inspecting the tree, it still grows, but slower?

Currently it isn't like that.
But IMHO trees should be changed to not stop growing completely by being stunted, just reduce in speed.

Fooled by randomness most likely. I agree that the stunting mechanic could be better.

If they kept growing like this and (optionally) took on a minor ~5% decrease in quality, it would be a lot better than the tree/bush becoming useless.

A 5% decrease in quality will make them useless (at some point in the world development).
Speed reduction would be enough, in case it's (say) a reduction of 20% of current speed (factor of .8) it could even be applied repeatedly...
