Advanced Orchards

This mod adds the ability to farm tree saplings in crop plots. This mod requires the mods Advanced Agriculture installed before it. Sadly, there are many issues with the way vanilla trees currently work that make a mod like this very difficult to implement without the changes made by Advanced Agriculture.

Tree saplings grow to harvestable size in one year. At harvest, any growths the tree produces will be harvested alongside a sapling plant. The sapling can be further processed into a structural material (thread from abaca, wood from most other trees) and a sapling seed.

Sapling seeds can be obtained in several ways. Brewing and milling most tree fruits will provide seeds, the exceptions being cacao, cashews, and coffee since these seeds are obtained from the roasting process. There is also a category of reactions in the Farmer's Workshop which provides seeds from all trees. Edible fruits and nuts can be processed into seeds, or if a tree does not have those the wood can be sacrificed to collect the sapling seeds. The exception is abaca, as it does not have wood or edible fruits, so the leaves can be used to obtain seeds. The reactions for processing the sapling plants also produces a seed. Sapling seeds can be bought in trade from other civilizations, allowing access to exotic tree materials.

This mod uses the WORLDGEN_ENABLED and FORTRESS_MODE_ENABLED reaction tokens to easily integrate with all modded civilizations!
