tree connection and tree cutting

[F.O.A.M]

so im doing a animal personhood and tree connection playthrough and i got a problem, i set my pawns on planting some rise in the 140% fertility area while making sure to not plant in a space a tree is in, my pawns being the morons they are decide to cut down those trees that i told them not to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ touch and now all of my pawns have a 10 minus mood debuff that has no duration because they have cut down trees THAT I TOLD THEM NOT TO CUT. ive been trying to search on how to remove mood debuffs with the dev mode but havent found anything.

does this debuff have a hidden duration or am i screwed?

You can't grow crops in the 3x3 area around a tree, if you place a grow zone next to a tree colonists will automatically cut it as default behavior so they can grow in the spaces you told them to. The new "allow cutting" tag on your grow zone was added specifically for this playstyle, turn that off and they wont cut trees.

The debuff is based on the number of trees chopped in the last 15 days, so if you don't chop anything else for that long it should go away.

thx, knowing its a duration i will live with it, also you learn something new every day, you cant plant crops in a 3x3 radius around trees, i never knew. i guess it makes sense because of the shade but if your people REALLY hates cutting trees then reduced growing speed should be good enough as to not hate yourself lmao. i think its an oversight of the game but knowing that it is timed and not permanent il deal with it

Oh so thats why my colonists cut trees next to the flower path. Thanks, Astasia.

I have a base with beautiful big modded tree in the center of a circle. It was already a third tree, but I have pretty packed base so it`s hard to redo crops in another arrangement. And I wouldn`t even try to harvest crops by hands. Sad.
