| − | From what I've observed, underground trees and shrubs will only grow on dry subterranean soil if one of the two following conditions is satisfied: 1. there is an unmined soil wall within a 2 tile radius on the Z-level beneath the tile in question (just like how willow trees will only grow within a 2 tile radius of a river/brook/murky pool tile on the Z-level below); 2. there is a muddy tile within a 2-tile radius on the '''same''' Z-level | + | From what I've observed, underground trees and shrubs will only grow on dry subterranean soil if one of the two following conditions is satisfied: 1. there is an unmined soil wall within a 2 tile radius on the Z-level beneath the tile in question (just like how willow trees will only grow within a 2 tile radius of a river/brook/murky pool tile on the Z-level below); 2. there is a muddy tile within a 2-tile radius on the '''same''' Z-level. I first observed this behavior back in 40d and it still seems to be working this way in 0.31. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 17:45, 11 September 2010 (UTC) |

::I have a single Z level that is one level below outside (Z-1). Half of it has plants/trees growing all over it, the other half doesn't! The Z-2 level is uniformly un-mined. There is an aquifer, but it doesn't correlate with the no plants area. It could be that under this area is non-soil, but I don't think so. Also, I've noticed that if I level down some hills outside, sometimes the trees grow back, sometimes they don't. Doesn't matter wether there is soil below or not.--[[User:Kwieland|Kwieland]] 20:19, 10 October 2010 (UTC) | ::I have a single Z level that is one level below outside (Z-1).
