Space Age expansion exclusive feature.

Ashland trees are part of the natural terrain generation in Vulcanus, acting as a source of carbon. They are trees with all the water and nutrients burned out of it, due to the harshly high temperatures of the planet, leaving only a twisted, leafless form of carbon behind. There are also flaming ashland trees, which leave a small radius of fire on the ground when chopped down.

Despite already being adapted to fire, setting either variant of tree on fire with a weapon such as a flamethrower can still burn the trees away, reducing them to stumps just like standard trees.

History

• 2.0.7:
  • Introduced in Space Age expansion.

Trivia

• The existence of ashland trees would suggest that the planet once had living fauna, or these trees somehow adapted to the planet's high temperatures and managed to grow in their current state.
