Current Behavior

There is an issue with the foresters "restricted zone". If there is no tree to cut in the restricted area he will go outside that zone.

Expected Behavior

The foresters should never leave the "restricted zone". He should wait for the trees to grow back.

Reproduction Steps

1- Set restricted area.
2- Wait for the trees to be depleted.
3- Watch him ruins your beautiful decorative trees :P.

Logs

No Logs.

Anything else?

Suggestion: It could be an actual feature is people do not want to have downtime on their production... You could add an option to activate it. " If there is no trees in the restricted ares - Goes outside the restricted zone"

Thanks! Love the mod!

can confirm this occurs also on 1165 alpha.
Also, if the forester is set to zone mode and no zone is set I would expect them to not cut trees (and they do still cut trees).
(this is a common use case for me where I want to put woodcutting on hold or where a given forester is meant to only do log stripping)

commented

From my discord comments also below
1165 alpha....
I set the forester to zoning mode. Set his zone to 1x2 block area with ni wood or leaves (I only want him for log stripping). The guy can't stop wandering around cutting down trees...even after fire and rehire
I wish there was a control in their ui like plantation or apiary
Cut trees +strip, or strip only ๐Ÿ™‚
I also wonder if ther is any possibility for sawmill to strip....in many playthroughs forester takes forever to get to the strip orders, leaving builders cooling their heels waiting

Also, if the forester is set to zone mode and no zone is set I would expect them to not cut trees (and they do still cut trees).

Iirc in that case, the setting doesn't actually get saved, as there is no point having zoning mode in without having a zone

commented

There is a point actually, as stated: I want a way for them to never chop trees, and only strip logs for me

commented

Weird, for me they walk to the zone and just stand there and do nothing.

commented

The original poster had it happen more than once (I think they said it happened twice in 20 hours or so - but then it happened more times, and they were able to work out it was happening each time when there was no trees in the zone)

commented

They might still hunt down and chop one last tree after you set the zone area + setting, but should then stop after that. Firing and rehiring should reset that too (such that they wouldn't), but I'm not entirely sure.

commented

Yes, that is expected. They also started stripping a few seconds later for me then.

commented

Are they constantly running around cutting trees or does it happen here and there randomly?

commented

He usually chop trees in the restricted area for a long time (hours) before he goes out of the zone.

Also, when hes out of the restricted area, he's always going to the same other area/trees (that's how i spot him). I dont know if that can help but he usually have time to replant 2-3 trees in that spot (outside restricted zone) before i notice and those are the trees that he goes to...

Also like Talyda said, it happened to me a lot of time now. Around 5 times in the past week.

Thanks!

commented

Mine wandered near their hut chopping trees (including outside his 1x2 box I zoned...the ui did say 2 blocks )
Fired rehired and he went right back to chopping
