Hi, I’m thinking of setting up an automated way to harvest the wood that grows out of a planted root seed.
I’m thinking having four auto-drillers pointed at the four sides of a planted root seed, so that anytime it grows, the wood will automatically be cut away.
But maybe there is a more effective way? I am not sure how exactly the wood growth works. Maybe you get more wood faster if you let the seed grow out a bit - perhaps every wood “tile” has a separate chance to push a new growth onto a random neighboring free tile?
I’m currently thinking something like this:
If the root seeds are initially watered at different time, their growth timers should be offset, so that even three of them can grow into the same tile, as long as the drill cuts the new growth immediately.
The torches are there to block the wood growth, so that it can only grow on the three spots covered by the drills.
I’ll see how it works. :)
