How long did you wait between the invisible trees and HL placing them ?

3

It happen yesterday. Then today it was still invis after play for a few hours then like right after I posted they started to plant them.

hey there @Marzdor, welcome to the discourse :smile:

were you hearthlings doing other tasks (mining, building, etc) before they started placing the trees?

5

On and off, the times that they were not they would either rest by the fire or just be idle.

6

strange… so its most likely not a priority based issue… :confused: were the saplings in crates? i know there used to be issues with placing stuff that was in crates…

7

Yes they are in stone crates.

8

though its highly unlikely, that could be the problem.

do you have a save from before they started planting them? if you do, and could provide it, that would help figure the problem out.

9

I don’t have one but, if it happens again then what i will do is take them out of the crates to see if that fixes it.

If not, try to get all your workers idling and save-reload the game :wink:

11

Okay I will try that too.

I’ve the same problem here.

BTW I’ve no sapling in my crates, the city inventory tells me that I’ve 58 sapling , but there are no one in the stockpile or in the crates.

After a load the transparent tree are still present, but I can place sapling again in the grass.

I can kill the fake tree in the console, but I don’t know how to remove the sapling from my inventory.

I can provide the savegame if you want.

Hey there @Kbyte, welcome to the Discourse! Save games are always useful and appreciated. Do you know how to locate it and upload?

14

Sure!

This is the corrupted savegame:

Hmm, definitely odd. Just played for a bit, if I added in a tree using debug tools, they would plant it, but I agree that I am unsure where the 58 in your town inventory are coming from. Did you ever grow trees via a farmer, or attempt to add them via the debug tools? Do you know how they showed up in the first place?

16

I had a oak tree farm, then after a while I’ve removed it. I never used debug tools for add/remove/destroy items.

17

Did you notice if any of the trees grew fully in the farm, and were removed by your farmers? Were you able to place any trees successfully?

BTW, love the underground mine, and hidden ladder up to the goblin level!

18

Yep!

Full growed saplings were picked up by farmers and stocked in the stockpile and I planted some trees without problems.

After a while I discovered that the number of sapling in the stockpile was lesser than the number in the village inventory

OK, thanks! Something for the devs to look at when they get back from vacation. Paging @Albert…

A little bump, I think I may know the problem since I’m having the same problem.
What would happen i think is; if we have say 20 saplings that are ready to be ‘harvested’, the farmers would gather say 3-5 saplings (or something like that) to generate one pot plant similar to how farming works - collect 5 carrots or something for one basket of carrots.

As a result the UI would say there are 20 saplings but in reality you can only plant about 8 - 15.
I would occasionally watch the farmers as this has been happening for some time and see that 20 saplings are never produced
