Some saplings can't be chopped down

[Dwarfu]

I planted some mulberry, apple, oak, birch and...the other one...near my cabin.

They aren't growing, so I though I should chop some down to see if their hit boxes were colliding. They have the menu option to chop, and the avatar walks up to perform the action, but never does. I tried using 'destroy' on them also.

How do I get rid of them? I planted them in the fir forest, so not sure if that is causing it. The fir trees I planted are doing just fine.

give them time, they are not on their optimal terrain so they will take longer to grow.

They aren't growing.

Unless you planted them on day 1 of the new world, that shouldn't really be of any surprise.

I'm pretty sure they're also on the wrong kind of land, which will slow down their growth.

I assumed that, but it is the problem of not being able to cut them down that I'm reporting. They can't be removed at all. The fir saplings I can cut down just fine, and they are also growing fine.

It should be mentioned that the "native" terrain of those trees are no longer grassland, but leaf-wood forest*.

(And yes, there is a difference between the leaf-wood and coniferous forests -- they just use the same tile, currently)

* Is there a good, idiomatic name for this in English? We could actually not find one.

I think Deciduous forest is what you are looking for. It pretty much covers any tree (and shrub) type that has their leaves fall off.

Reading Wikipedia, it sounds like "Broadleaf" is closer to what Loftar wants.

Forests can be classified in different ways and to different degrees of specificity. One such way is in terms of the "biome" in which they exist, combined with leaf longevity of the dominant species (whether they are evergreen or deciduous). Another distinction is whether the forests composed predominantly of broadleaf trees, coniferous (needle-leaved) trees, or mixed.

Huh, interesting. Broadleaf redirects to the page on flowering plants. I didn't know birch trees had flowers.
