No Trees
« on: November 26, 2007, 05:08:00 pm »

In Dwarf Fortress mode, I picked an area that said it had trees, and when I went to the location none appeared.  This has happened every time I tried to start a fortress.

Did you install the new version on top of the old one that was released in January? I had this very same problem when I did that. When I deleted DF and installed the new version without old one underneath it, the problem disappeared.

The biome says there's trees, but the elevation wont allow tree growth beyond a certain height limit.

Elevation 150 or above is above the treeline. This isn't accounted for on the embark screen's desrciption of the biome.
