doomstrike53 Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) Is there a reason we have to do this for sticks and saplings? It just seems unnecessarily tedious to me, and realistically I would chop down the tree first then scavenge all that stuff on the ground instead of having to climb it. If by chance anyone knows of a mod to change this I'd be interested to try it out. Yes I know there are shears later on that really help, but either way my point is that it's unnecessarily tedious and doesn't make sense from a realistic standpoint.

Thorfinn Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 OneStick and StickEmUp both do what you want, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 There are various things about a game (especially survivally type games) that are there for game-play/balance reasons that are not realistic. I think this is one of those things. Shearing trees to get sticks and saplings represents time spent harvesting those items not necessarily that sticks and seeds (not saplings) need to be gathered from the tree canopy before felling the tree.

Thorfinn Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Personally, I like the way it's done. Well, other than it consumes a point of durability for every leaf block, but doesn't give you the drops. Either give me the sticks or only count the actual logs into durability, thanks. I've tried OneStick, and the problem with it is you end up having to burn sticks or throw them away or something crazy like that. Rather than be something relatively valuable that you specifically seek out, it's trash filling your inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owktree Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 I just sort of viewed that work as the equivalent to Coppicing. Or doing the topping and other work you generally want to do before felling the tree. Specific handling to "get" specific products. And "sticks" are a pretty broad thing given all the items the substitute for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
