Title: Tree Density
Post by: The Hood on February 05, 2009, 10:49:17 pm
I want to increase the number of trees that get planted per tile in a forest during map generation.  I've had a play with forestrules.tab but no joy.  Does anyone know if and how this is possible?

forest_no_of_trees_per_square = 3 caps it at three a tile. Number higher than 5 will make simutrans crawl with large maps.

Just curious: how many trees can be on one tile?

Uhhhhh. Why isn't that horrible number capped at some 8 or so? That would definitely reduce some memory needed... and I know how much you like optimization ;)

OK thanks.  Somehow I missed that one.  D'oh!

It is actually:
max_no_of_trees_on_square
But it is wrong for ages in the forestconf.tab of pak64 ...

It only needs as much memory as there actually are objects (plus a little overhead, but not much). It's a quite highly compressed structure (****uming that it still is the one that was in use when I was active with coding).
