🌲 Forest, trails and bridges

• Forest can’t be walked through: settlers go around it and chop from the edge. If ruins or deposits are behind solid forest, nobody can get there until a path is cut 🪓.
• A building can’t be placed where nobody can reach, or so that it blocks the way to part of the land.
• Where people walk often, trails appear. Roads are paved by builders (the “Road” tool) — walking on them is faster. A road is drawn as a line — straight or exactly diagonal (with Shift — an area).
• Over shallow water, “Road” builds a bridge of planks.
• Planting: the “Forestry” research, a 🪵 Nursery and the 🌱 “Plant” tool.
