Do the sources of wood that grow in caves count as tree's to the elves for purposes of diplomacy? I understand that a Towercap is in fact a mushroom. However, we all know how smart the elves are.

[quinntan]

Yeah they're considered "trees."

[K4el]

Yeah they're considered "trees."

Stupid elves...

[JAFANZ]

Pretty sure the dwarves consider them trees too...

I mean, would you normally cut a Mushroom into Logs?

[Proteus]

AT least they donīt count your use of imported wood towards your cutting trees limit

It may not be 100% hard coded, but as far as I've seen, if you just don't cut down any trees at all, then the elves and humans bring TONS of wood for trade, and at 3 per, it's essentially free.  Past the first year or so you don't really need wood for anything but beds anyway, if you hurry up and get your metal industry going.

Wood brought by caravans is based entirely on the number of unforbidden logs in your fortress, even ones that are used in the construction of water wheels and axles. Thus, if you go into Z-Stocks and forbid every log in your fortress just before the caravan arrives, it'll bring lots and lots of cheap logs.

Why would you even listen to their tree limit? If you don't they siege you, with wooden weapons and armor! All that means is they'll get sad and beg you not to kill them. But you will anyway, out of principle.
