About This File

3x3 ploppable forest lots for some quick forest planting. Of course, the trees still have to grow for the same period until they are big. This is just a cheaper, faster, and more effecient way.

 

Just put these lots next to each other until you got the desired shape, then use the Mayor's tree tool and plant the outskirt trees for a good look (otherwise it will look odd). To do this, just move the mouse cursor in and out by the edge of the forest for a few cells.

 

Btw, God-mode trees will never get this density that i've made in this lot, which makes it very easy for fires to spread - which brings me to the next 'feature' :D

 

Since i'm very evil, i've given this lot more use :). If you don't watch out, a forest fire will start! And when that burns, you will lose a lot of trees :) its very cool to watch. Anyway, you better have a firefighter plane to reach the spots in the middle of the forest. (or you can do the less spectacular thing and just demolish the lots that are burning).

 

If you have a firestation covering the forest area, then fires are unlikely to start and even if they do, it will be put out before it spreads even without dispatching a fire truck engine. However, if the forest is not within a firestations covering area, a firetruck will have a tough time battleing the flames :)

 

Oh, and the tree that i used was the noble fir tree or what its called.

 

And also, for a more positive use, they greatly reduce air pollution within its area.

 

 

 

(ps. As you can see, i'm running out of ideas. If you got an idea for a future lot, lemme know and i'll see if its possible.)

very cool. 10 stars from me. i love your lots equinox, very creative and useful. for a suggestion for a lot, I would REALLY love some military lots because I'm building a region that's pretty unique and the military plays a big role. maybe some checkpoint and military tent's and stuff.

Yes I would like someone to combine Grand Central Station, the elevated rail, the monorail, the bus depot, the subway station, and the freight station. I wanted toreally make my city really huge and with every type of transportation at one City Depot in the downtown. Thank you

yes it would be possible, though i question the usefulness & the realism of it. Since designing the lot is most of the work, I'll make you a offer. You design the lot, and i'll edit it for functionality.

SWEET! LOL, nope, I didn't design this, but I'm thinking 'bout making one now that has maybe a different type of tree ... But I probably won't post it here, it's pretty much copying, I guess. LOL, anyways, good job! 10.

:) why not post it here? Its not like i'm the first one to do a forest lot. I'm just the first one to do a forest lot that has a fire hazard rating and is flammable :) Btw, you can expect around 1 forest fire every 10 years :D

Nice! But if you used the Mayor Mode trees I created they wouldn't have to grow, they would be full size all the time. ;)
