run of out fire wood, is it finite or renewable?

[MythN7]

I know theres lots to break down and chop.
But if your REALLY good at the the game is this a finite resource?
Since animals respawn, food can be attained as reneweable.
Same with water.

I guess same could be said for matches and firestrokers.

So I guess there becomes a point where all your doing is running farther and farther away for the sole purpose of looking for ways to keep a fire going, if your good enough right?

Sticks, branches, small limbs and coal all respawn over time. Recycled wood does not.Recycled wood may wash up on the shoreline during beachcombing. The large limbs with 4-5 chunks of fir or cedar do not respawn.

All firewood (except items like chairs where you get reclaimed wood) if renewable. Sticks and limbs all apear in a few days, depends on the difficulty and luck in exacly how many days, but they do on the same spot you got them the last time.

However cedar and fire firewood (already cut, ones you only pick up) are a one time deal, no respawn..

Fir respawn - not sure about size, but I have cut the Fir in front porch in Jackrabbit's house two times in same game (Interloper) using a hacksaw, need make a campfire near for don't freeze during job.

Again, the LARGE limbs do not respawn. Like the one across from the Camp Office in ML, that yeield 4-5 chunks of fir or cedar. The SMALL limbs do respawn, the ones that yield 3 chunks of fir or cedar. Please read what I wrote carefully.

O.o

I've been living in Mountain Town for a little while and I broke up a fir limb behind the Paradise Meadows farmstead and it yielded four. I went out a couple days later and since this limb was in an odd location, I saw that it had respawned in the exact odd location. Maybe it's just the location I'm in. :)

But yes, I do notice some limbs like the one across from the camp office do not respawn. I think that's one of the few cons about camp office as a base, not much wood around it.

To the OP; Like others said; Coal, sticks, branches and some small limbs respawn. :)

I have never had a large 4-5 cut limb respawn, and supposedly they are not supposed to. Which is why the huge one across from Camp office is a one-time-only deal. I have had the small 3 cut ones respawn right under my feet on occasion, which is unnerving.

But they are not supposed to respawn, EITHER one.

Apparently it is a bug that they do: http://www.hinterlandforums.com/forums/topic/20617-milton-mailbag-dispatch-3/?do=findComment&comment=137347

So... that may get fixed in a future update. Enjoy the fact that ANY limbs respawn for now. They may stop doing so in the future.

The big one at scruffies cave in DP does respawn too.
But it takes a lot of time till it respawns.

They also spawn at the hill just north of Trappers Cabin.

Every 10 days (as close as I can tell). I'm practically a full time resident there.
The coal takes somewhat longer...between 20 and 30 days...I haven't an exact time yet.

Hm, that's pretty odd. I do remember it was a limb that gave four pieces, and I'm fairly sure it was the same one as before. Perhaps it is a bug? Weird.

Like they say, keeping your fire going will be easy, especially as long as you've got metal for hatchets and hacksaws.
Matches, though, those do not reapawn. Unless you can pick them and firestrikers up while beachcombing.

[spwade666]

If you're not actively exploring or scavenging, you are going to get stuck for firewood. but if you always pick up any stick that you see on your travels then you will be fine. remember to use the cooking system to your advantage, you might only need a stick rather than a cedar log to complete your task.

only level where sticks are scarce is loper, and even there i've seen players pick a few kilos up in a couple of foraging sessions.

also pick up the magnifying glass for sunny days, actually has a great chance for starting fires second to only the firestriker
