When can we expect Foresting mechanics? ( regrowing trees )

[f.meussen]

Really waiting at this point before this is implemented, hate to trade for wood al the time

[manfred.stabentheiner]

why trade ?? there is an isel of wood
Oil wood and other resources are your resources ..your worker work there to get your resources

[ostlandr]

Very entertaining the way trees don't get destroyed when you mine them- they just shift to the new ground level. Would make sense if they were destroyed- that would be an incentive to clear mining areas of trees before digging.

It would make more sense if they just fell over and were harvested later. Like in real life.

This is stupid if you ask me, we got all kinds of complex industry but a simple forester is too difficult?
As long as wood is a major ingredient in the construction chain ( construction part 1 ) a forester is needed, that there is another mechanic via other islands is nice but not the sole solution.
You can farm, then you also plant trees. ( foresting )

Why not a big supermarket on an other island then? ( if you follow your logic )
Or a big hardware store ?

[manfred.stabentheiner]

its ok for me if dev bring forester into game
i say only ...you dont trade trees you have an isel of trees

Probly never Because that would demolish any balancing in the game. Also theres a sawmill that you are supposed to use much like the mines. The resources on your island are supposed to be FINITE so being able to replenish a resource makes no sense for the game

Foresting in a game like this? Completly boring and unnessessary.

Trees replanting is on the revised road map as of June 2 2022. https://www.captain-of-industry.com/roadmap

I agree with you in a way, it would be weird of regrowing coal or oil but iron ore that is defendable in a way, vulcano eruption could replenisch ores (metals)for example ( and source of sulfur , fertilizer )
BUT regrowing trees absurd ? That is normal life, wood is simply a renewable source just like wheat or potatoes .
Even for decoration reasons it is wanted, a barren island with just industry on it is ugly and boring.
Also the thing i am missing is fishing in this game, fish is also a food source right?

[Peter34]

Some people would disagree that fish are food.

I quite like fish, apart from the ones with lots of nasty tiny bones.

Offcourse fish is a food source, also why is there no animal husbandry? ( also a kind of industry )

Sooner or later you dont have any spot left for trees
but the question is ...need this game trees to replant for the game design..answer is no
need this game tree replant for dekoration ..answer is yes

the game have all for normal playstile ..but if you (example me to) play extrem or other playstile we need trees and other dekoration for ouer playstile ..

i think devs will get more sooner or later into game if this is fish or aluminium or other things
if not its ok for me ..i played over 800 houers and i am happy i buyed this game

Yeah also great example :)

Where is alumnium ( bauxite ) ?
Where is uranium ( power /weapons )

But then, you cant do every metal out there. But some of the choices i find are a little bit off

[yes]

dude, its how the game is designed, there no reason to be pissed at the messenger ...

devs already said they plan regrowing mechanics, so just be patient. i know something people today really struggle with.

I would like to see forestry in the game. For balance, though, trees should grow very slowly. You'd need to plan out your future wood needs. And forestry would compete for precious acreage with everything else. IMHO the sawmill island is a bit OP. OTOH you are burning diesel for the cargo ship along with labor and unity.
