I got trees in my base!

Is there a chainsaw in the game?

I wish!

If they are from a seed spreader you can do a couple things, either reload the game (they will change locations every time), remove the seed and put it back (does the same thing as a reload), or you may want to shift your tree spreader slightly further away. If it is trees the have been added to the game after a certain terraformation level (meaning not from a tree spreader you placed) there is no way to move them.

Yes, I really don't like the trees. Mostly because they obstruct things, but the worst bit for me is you slap down 8 tree spreaders and some optimisers and then you can't get back to the optimisers or the spreaders as the trees obstruct them. I'm not sure how they'd fix that
- maybe have a maximum tree density since trees can't actually live that close to each other anyway?

The stuff like trees, climbing vines and zeolite that pop up mid game can be a pain for your base. I had to manually delete an ore extractor from the save file after a vine grew through it and I could no longer access the storage. That was a pain that a non-technical person would never have managed (and I only did because I found a guide to editing your save file for pretty much that reason).

Ok. Tnx guys.

this happened to me, except it's a HUGE tree trunk that just grew in the world (not a tree spreader), shot right through a 2-room base of mine that had multiple lockers full of good stuff. Some of which I'm not really sure is replaceable. Totally screws me. I can see zero way of getting my stuff out, the tree is completely blocking it. This has to be fixed, there was absolutely no way I could have known that would happen. And it doesn't even allow multiple saves so what gives.

Ouch, yeah, I was annoyed enough when it happened to my ore extractor. That is so much worse.

The appearance of annoying trees is a real problem of the game yes.
And I'm not talking about those that appear with tree spreaders (because we can pretty much control where they will appear), but those that appear randomly, it's really annoying.

I know it's not the ideal solution, but couldn't you just build a building to go over the trees with your jetpack and remove the tree spreaders that are in the way, and space them out more?

We need a chainsaw.

LOL, yeah this happened to me too; as was said elsewhere I put down 8 T3 Tree Spreaders with an optimizer in the middle.... right next to my base. It made my base really difficult to maneuver in, and the Tree optimizer itself was so surrounded by trees I couldnt even approach it.

Lesson learned; not doing THAT near my base again; had to move the whole thing farther away. By the way, to reach my optimizer (before I did the big move), all I had to do was go around to 2-3 Tree Spreaders and remove their Seed for about 15 secs and then put them back in... that will eliminate all the trees that seed made (for a while). I soon reached the one that made the trees that had been blocking my path. . . .they came back in a new pattern

For anyone facing the same issue with a chest stuck inside a tree, and a tree that can't be removed (because it doesn't come from the seed spreader but from the base game location), you can use an autocrafter to craft something using the resources in that chest.

I encountered this issue with a chest full of circuit boards, and when I got the autocrafter, I simply crafted some bombs!

I hope this helps others like me and my friends, who were really frustrated by it—but very happy when we discovered the autocrafter recipe!

Every time I think about getting this game, I see a thread like this, such a noob mistake in a building game to let trees go thru base.

Right up there with rain coming thru my roof (looking at you Conan exiles). Thanks for the thread.

The rain coming through the roof is usually a Unity engine issue, every game I play that uses it, has that issue. The tree issue, is usually because they built in an area that eventually has trees and those dont seem to care if there is a building there or not, they just show up.

I read. "I got trees in my bees."

A thick root of a tree blocked the entry of my base so I deconstructed the door and reconstruct a new one on the side. There are bushes and part of the root inside my base but they donot block anything.
