I'd like to create trees which are 'climbable'; that is, they share the same property with the stone/soil landscape of having a 'top' that you can walk on. The idea being here, of course, that I can create a tree-top city.

At a glance, it seems that I have two options:

1) Cut down some trees and build walls from them to mimic tree trunks.
2) Laboriously convert trees into stone, and make them CLUSTER_ONE in the Soil layer, maybe. Who knows what will happen.

I don't see anything else that is promising- is there another way? Has this already been solved in a better way in the past?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Those are some strange dwarves you are using.

I know that it's possible already to stand on top of a tree, so maybe you could just build a ramp up to a tree and build from there?

Is it already possible? I never actually tried it, I just assumed based on how it looked from the next higher z-level- good to know, and thanks!

Edit: In at least the brief test I ran, it doesn't appear that you can stand on trees. Failing that, it doesn't seem in any case you can build flooring around it without a tile over the trunk.

See my other topic in this forum.

I think I read somewhere that if you were to fall onto a tree, you would get stuck there... can't remember the specifics anymore

It's true.  The game considers you as being "flying", so if you don't have the tag apparently you can't move at all.
