I cannot use the tree-cutting tractor for Oak trees

Post by rogeriodec »

After planting literally thousands of Oak seedlings, after they grew, I realized that the tree-cutting tractors do not accept cutting this type of tree, showing the message: "This tree type is not suitable!"

This is extremely frustrating, as I was thinking about speeding up the cutting.
Is there any mod that allows this with a tractor?

They fellers should. Processors will not.

After doing a little research, I discovered that there is a way to make a batch change to tree types using the Giant Editor, as shown in this video: https://youtu.be/IqO5rpTz0HY?si=mizKTh_VtMVCCgi_

But when opening the Giant Editor, following this tutorial (https://youtu.be/4uYgum96cxQ?si=h7kZnJukSCEaFvQi&t=66), there is no option for my map.

How do I change one type of planted tree to another type, hundreds at the same time?

I discovered the solution for myself: just edit the "treePlant.xml" file that is in the game's specific "savegame" folder:

Above is the list of all the "OAK" trees I have planted.
I want them to become "PINE".
But, as I don't know the internal code of each tree, I do the following:
1) I plant a Pine tree.
2) Saved the game.
3) Open the treePlant.xml file again and the tree code will appear there.
4) From there, just replace the string in your text editor:
