🌲 Forest kinds, berries and mushrooms

On new shards the forest varies. Which kind it is shows in the color of the crowns and in the tile caption.

• Oak grove — strong wood: each tree gives 3 more logs.
• Birch grove — a clearing grows back 1.6 times faster.
• Spruce forest — soft wood: chopped 1.3 times faster.

Berries and mushrooms

• Berry patches 🍓 and mushroom spots 🍄 grow at forest edges. Mark them with the “Chop” tool 🪓 — settlers will gather the berries and mushrooms (this is the “Chopping” job).
• 4 or more at a time (with a skilled woodcutter). Then the spot rests for 4 days; nothing is gathered in winter.
• Berries and mushrooms are food: more filling than grain, less than bread. They are eaten before bread because they spoil fast outside a granary.
• Colonies started before version 1.41.0 stay as they were: they have no forest kinds or forest gifts.
