Lumberjacking
- This article is incomplete, which means that while it is not a stub, it still lacks certain data or information.
- Please see Category:Incomplete articles for more articles that are incomplete.
The logging or lumberjack system is used to produce wood for engineering and other crafts.
Currently this system is only LIVE in DR TEST.
Locations
- Also: See Category:Groves.
Forest Groupings
There will be 4 types of forest found, with the following wood types possibly included in each. Province/location may affect inclusion in the groups:

Tools
- Axes: Any weapon with the noun "axe" should be usable to fell trees. The higher the slice of the axe, the greater chance of an RT reduction.
Basics
Survey the Grove
The first step to logging is to find an appropriate area and WATCH FOREST to determine what trees can be found there.
WATCHing will also allow seeing how much material is left to be logged in a given room.
WATCH FOREST DANGER will allow an attempt to make a dangerous situation safer in any single room.
WATCH FOREST CAREFULLY will allow an attempt to locate more material.
The materials that can be found are entirely dependent on the climate of the area. Currently there are no rare tree types.
Logging
Once you have located suitable area, hold your axe in either hand (other hand must be empty), simply proceed to CHOP TREE.
Trees take a number of chops to fell, after which they can produce several pieces of wood on subsequent chops. You can receive various sizes of wood pieces which include:
- wood limb
- short wood branch
- long wood branch
- wood log
- thick wood log
Material Storage
Once a material is found that is worth keeping, either pick it up by hand, or PUSH it to the side to have a nearby attendant store it for a small fee. If attendants are not available in the logging location, deed packets purchasable from either crafting society allows deeding of materials by PUSHing the material with the packet. Note that deed packets will require ten minutes to pass before the material becomes available for use within any crafting society.
Attendants charge 10% of the material's appraised value, while deeds from a packet cost a flat 1 silver lirum per deed. For more valuable materials, it's cheaper to use a packet even if attendants are available.
Dangers
The more activity in a given area, the greater the chance of a mishap. The type of dangers is practically dependent upon the stone type of the area.
The dangers have a variety of results, such as either direct damage, outright death, or just destruction of all mineable materials in the area.
Explosion
- Room Message: You notice an unusual smell drifting through the area.
- WATCH FOREST Message: Studying the forest, you are certain that continued lumberjacking will be slightly dangerous because an unusual smell hints at an explosion danger.
Collapse
Dangerous Flora & Fauna
- Room Message: A monotonous buzzing sound fills the air.
- WATCH FOREST Message: Studying the forest, you are certain that continued lumberjacking will be slightly dangerous because odd noises reveal potentially dangerous insects or plants nearby.
