How long does it take for a mature grown tree to die? I always seem to get the perfect land.....except for this one little hill with this one tree right on the top of it, where I want to put my crops and pastures. My people get just so close....and it's a wee bit too high, even for a little hill.

Anyone have a rough idea how long it takes for trees to just up and die off?

A tree which is there since the map started can die at every time because its age is unknown. The maximum age of a vanilla tree is about 20 years. I guess you have a North map running. There trees live longer, about 30 years. But if your workers cannot reach it to cut it down then you will not be able to use this spot for farming probably. :)

If the dam thing would just die off, I can use the flatten tool to open up more space, see.  :)

if you use the flatten tool, one square at a time all around the tree, it will flatten it.   then when the tree is up in the air, the little bannies will figure out how to cut it down.

They can't get up there. And if I flatten around it, it just leaves this inaccessible pillar in the middle of things and looks weird.

Yea! You just have to wait for the laborers to remove everything in the designated area to be flattened. Then the land will flatten.
At least that's the way it works with GimmeCat's Flatten Mod.

Sorry to butt in. @twilightbreeze has a tree on a tile with 'unusable' flag.
It means the bannies can't go there and chop it down.
Sometime trees grow up there where it is not 'walkable'.

If I remember right CC has/had a flatten tool that forced removing all resources
directly and then flatten. Resources were not collected, just deleted.
Just to fix this problem.

Thank you Kid. That's exactly what happens. So.....where can I find this tool? (BTW, I am using GimmieCat's "Flatten" mod)
