I’m working on something similar, it’s not easy.
there are very few mods for Forestry. Uncharted territory
Nice! Did you do any progress?? I built some Production chains like TunikaTante mentioned... But they all have the same problem. They can only make use of WOOD or WOOD-CHIPS. But if we can detect the Length and Thickness of every Trunk we will into Production, we could bring forestry to another level.
You would have to sort your Wood in the Forest before you load it onto Trucks and bring it somewhere...
Production / WOOD | Length | Thickness | Price per 1000 liters |
Log - Wood Stove Production | 0-3m | 0-20cm | 319 € |
Boards and lamellae | 3-6m | 20-60cm | 600 € |
Wood Bar and processed Tribes | 5-10m | 50-100cm | 1200 € |
and so on... I would take the Production Chains of the Platinum dlc, but feed them only with the sort of Log that makes sense. Noone would use a perfect 10m trunk to build roof tiles out of it...
