The PERFECT Log Length DOES Exist

[@filip1117s]

sooo... thicknes near tip really matters... and bigger is better

I wish the was a laugh emoji in the like button!

[@siloamking2486]

That's what she said

[@jonny5777]

It’s the age old problem, sometimes wood just isn’t as big as it is in your head

[@applejackcarsparks8482]

The randomness is simulating tree health and quality cause wild growth varies

[@joelg8004]

Kind of weird giants removed containers for trees.

[@rabidbadger5260]

Yeah, they're a miss for sure

[@chasedooley6237]

Don't worry, they'll sell that again in the Forestry DLC in a year or two

[@KingNiallGT]

@@chasedooley6237 most likely. in every other game by the end there are a ton of dlc and a ton of equipment they added. so we'll see what they decide this time. im hoping for more variety for the new crops.

[@iBrocast]

This is just realistic. Every tree is different because it's a living being. Every tree has a different amount of moisture in it and that will make up a few hundred kgs per tree. Also small differences in growth also add up over the full length of the tree. Some trees also have been partially eaten by bugs on the inside, which makes them lighter than other.

[@christopherwells4253]

Ah sir... I need to know what tree you are planting that grows trailers.

[@Driver53Gaming]

Ya see, that tree jumped out in front of the tractor when I was maneuvering to load up the smaller length logs. You should have seen what one of the other trees did to the harvester...

[@christopherwells4253]

@Driver53Gaming ah, if they are jumping in front of you, I would be more worried about these trees not being trees but Ents. In that case I'd just run 🤣

[@Tedger]

Glad it wasnt red pine..

[@prjndigo]

try 9 9 9 and 6m lengths XD. there's some mathematical volume goofyness going on AND you can also end up with false diameters or sometimes cuts carrying false dimensions.. cutting the very very tip off the end first will produce a flat end which helps the math be correct.

[@shanebennett4761]

If giants are replicating true forestry the main difference in the weights is moisture content

[@chrisjones6002]

I wonder if you tried the same tests but used the exact same tree. Cut the tree, see what it gives you then quit the game, load and cut it again.

[@AndirHon]

With randomness applied, he'd have to do the same test with multiple trees as well to get the true "best" if there is one. From the numbers shown, I'm not convinced there is one.

[@Cheese_burgergaming]

What kind of new mod is that? I want to grow roudolph trees to

[@tonys2683]

The length of your log matters..... That's what she said

[@MrBertstare]

It’s replicating real life. Logs hold a ton of water and can vary based on area

[@Skullwalker]

Nice tree decoration 😅

[@Punnikin1969]

If you still have this setup, see what value you can get from chipping an entire tree as compared to selling it as logs.

[@mrbgam1ng809]

this would all depend on how high the price is for selling wood chips and what time of the year . winter is usualy the best time to sell woodchips unless theres a high demand some were for it . and if you sell to much your gonna get a price drop also.

[@Punnikin1969]

@@mrbgam1ng809 I understand all of this, but if you're doing a comparison of log length at comparable selling prices (say, 80% of maximum) and you sell the chips from an entire tree at a similar price point, what kind of loss could you expect? Logging is involving and costly but chipping is relatively cheap and fast. Granted, you can use lumber to make other products, but wood chips can be a fast way of making decent capital to buy more expensive equipment later on.

[@MrBertstare]

There is a crossover point where it’s worth more in chips. I just finished lodgepole and oak testing

[@sgttownley5800]

just chip the tree and get way more in wood chips

[@PauperJ]

48.5 meters

[@shabeb73]

In the video you said that 9 m offers the most money per liter when in fact it is 6 m
