Forage for logs
Forage for logs
We can forage for straight branches, we can forage for deadwood logs, what about foraging for useful logs? They can be rarer but then I wouldn't have to chop down an entire tree when I just need one split log to craft something I need for survival (fireboard). They can be from trees that have fallen over naturally.

Re: Forage for logs
This would, affectively, trivialize lumber production. I suggest, instead, that split logs be forageable, or to even balance a bit further, we make fireboards based from something else, because indeed, they are not easy to get without serious and ridiculous time investment.
Re: Forage for logs
I think it'd probably be fine if deadwood logs could be used to make a fireboard. Maybe something where you need a certain amount of bushcraft or woodworking higher than the recipe initially calls for, to be able to use a deadwood log for it.
