Current Behavior

Forester finishes cutting. They wave their hands as if trying to replant but do not do so. No sapling requests appear on clipboard.

Expected Behavior

Replanting; requesting saplings if needed.

Where the bare dirt is, is where the bottom log existed.

Reproduction Steps

Plant tree of a type that has sapling enabled. Ensure use shears and break leaves is on. Grow it with bonemeal to speed things up

supplemental:
If I put saplings in their inventory before they do the cutting, they do replant

So the key thing is that they didn't properly ensure via request system that they had saplings of the right types in hand/in their inventory.

Just in case, did you have a minimum stock of those saplings?

No
While I concede that is a workaround I'd still suggest it's a bug (the forester should put in a request for whatever they need)

I'll see if they'll properly use them (I wonder if they'll pick them up out of the racks and have them on hand or not)
Because having them in the rack may not be enough

They may not know which saplings they will encounter in the colony/zone, and it also doesn’t make sense to make a request for all types of saplings
Putting in the request when they start chopping down would give the saplings too late, if the couriers are busy. Minimum stock is the only way I can think of that makes sense

Personally, I indeed would expect them to carry saplings with them, if they have them

I'll test it but I'm just suspicious they won't pick up the saplings heh

nope doesn't work
I put in a stack of birch saplings for min stock
waited for them to be there
Ensured forester had none in inventory and planted a birch sapling. Grew it. They did not pick up the saplings nor replant. Repeated test multiple times
They even went to the hut to drop off, each time, and never picked up any birch saplings

Well, huh
after a while they actually did go pick them up

Still seems like a bug? Maybe:

• If ever a forester cuts a tree and finds they didn't have that kind of sapling, put a request in for xx of that sapling so the colony owner knows something is amiss

Sure it won't fix things automatically for that incident but it at least gets it on the radar?
