Author Topic:   Option for former to plan trees

All I need is a command to automate the following:
- Lower rockiness
- kill fungus
- plant tree
That works best with Tree farms and Hybrid forest, my ussual strategy.
Questions:
1. Does tree offer defensive bonus and slow movement?
2. If a base is build upon a tree square, doesn't get the a production or defense bonus?

There already is an automated "remove fungus". Right click on the former, click terraform, click "autoremove fungus". I wouldn't recommend using it though; the automated queing within its little former mind is a bit screwy.
I also second the motion for automated plant forest.
I'm sorry, but I don't know the answers to you questions [I think its yes and yes, but not sure...]

I use the command already. But the former goes everywhere but clearing things methodically. I still like a command for planting trees though.

answers to your questions
1. Yes. It takes something like 2 move points to enter the a tree squares, and it provides +50% on defense.
2.No, it only get production bonuses if built on a bonus square, and no, bases have an automatic +25% bonus.
