Tree Growth Simulator

From GT New Horizons


Introduction

The Tree Growth Simulator is a GT++ multi-block made for automatically growing trees. It will consume power (and requires a starting sapling to run, which does not get consumed) and produce large amount of logs. Alternatively it can be set to produce saplings by providing Fertilizer in an Input Hatch.

Construction

A Tree Growth Simulator is a 3x3x3 structure that requires:

  • x1 Controller block; front, centered
  • x1 Maintenance Hatch; anywhere
  • x1 Energy Hatch, anywhere
  • x1 Muffler Hatch, anywhere
  • x0+ Input Bus, optional, anywhere[1]
  • x0+ Output Bus, optional, anywhere[2]
  • x0+ Input Hatch, optional, anywhere
  • x0+ Output Hatch optional, anywhere
  • x8+ Sterile Farm Casing
  1. One Input Bus required for the sapling.
  2. One Output Bus required for the output.

Usage

The Tree Growth Simulator is often used for a Benzene setup, as it produces logs at a fast rate and does not take up much space compared to other Tree Farm alternatives such as the Farming Station. A Saw is required in the GUI slot for the Tree Growth Simulator to run.
The production of logs from the Tree Growth Simulator can be seen below:
