Gauranlen tree exclusion radius

The Gauranlen tree is a tree added by the Ideology DLC. It produces and supports dryads. The tree reaches its largest size after 10 days since planting, although this is purely visual.

They can be eaten by alphabeavers but not by thrumbos, despite both being dendrovores. It is immune to Toxic fallout.

Growing[edit]

Gauranlen trees are grown from a Gauranlen seed, which must be harvested from a gauranlen pod. Gauranlen pods are spawned as an event that occurs roughly every 60 days (30 days with the Tree Connection meme), or as a successful ritual reward. Harvesting a pod yields 1-2 Garuanlen seed.

These seeds can be planted on any tile with a fertility stat. It cannot be planted closer than 4 tiles to another Gauranlen tree, or within 1 tile from any other tree or cactus. It also cannot be placed within 1 tile of a growing zone. However, if planted within 7 tiles of an artificial structure, the tree will experience a greater connection strength decay over time.

Like the anima tree and polux tree, but unlike other trees, Gauranlen trees cannot be moved.

Gauranlen trees heal slowly over time.^{[How fast?]}

Gauranlen moss[edit]

The tree will continously sprout gauranlen moss when it is planted. The moss has a beauty of +10, but serves no other purpose. It must be cut if growing other plants. It will spread flames, but cannot be burnt down itself. It can grow on any tile with fertility and does not require light.

Linking Ceremony[edit]

An unconnected Gauranlen tree can produce up to 2 immature dryads. For the tree to produced specialized dryads, a colonist must connect with the tree through a connection ceremony.

The ceremony requires at minimum 1 connector capable of Plant Cutting. Spectators will increase the quality of the ceremony, with each spectator over one adding an additional 10% expected ceremony quality. Depending on quality, the connection strength will start between 25% and 45%. For every 2% of expected connection quality, additional tile with gauranlen moss will spawn within 7 tile of gauranlen tree.

Even if connection reaches 0%, the pawn and tree will remain linked. The only way to break this link is for the connected colonist to die or be kidnapped by an enemy. Even if the colonist is resurrected or returned to a colony, the connection will be severed. There is a 30-day^[Verify] cooldown between the unlink and relinking.

Once you have linked to a tree, you can select a dryad caste. One tree can only have 1 caste of dryads, though you can have multiple dryads of that caste. Note that the connected pawn must have the "Basic" work type assigned to change the dryad caste after you have selected one.

Connection[edit]

In order for the tree to produce and sustain dryads, a linked pawn must prune it. Pruning builds up connection with the tree - the amount of connection determines how many dryads are sustained at once. Connection can be viewed by selecting the tree.

Connection	5%	25%	50%	75%
Dryads	1	2	3	4

It is recommended to keep connection strength above the desired threshold, as connection will fall even if pruned. If connection ever falls below the threshold, then dryads will merge back into the tree, and will have to be spawned again.

Regardless of connection strength, there is an 6 day timer between spawning each immature dryad. This time will tick down even if the tree is unconnected, or if connection strength is too low to support more dryads. Once a dryad has spawned, it will take 5 more days for a dryad to mature into a selected dryad caste.

Decay[edit]

Connection decays every day, by an amount dependent on the current connection level:

Connection decays by -2.6% / day at any level, except 0%.
Decay is increased by (-0.6% / day) per connection strength.
Decay maxes out at -6% day, at 65-70% connection strength.

Basically, the more dryads are sustained, the more pruning you will have to do per day.

Artificial buildings

Any artificial building in the Gauranlen tree's 7-tile range will increase connection decay by up to -6.2% / day. The amount of decay is dependent solely on how close the nearest artificial building is. Having multiple buildings does not impact connection decay.

In tile proximity to decay rate: 7 tiles : -1.7%, 6 tiles : -2.4%, 5 tiles : -3.2%, 4 tiles : -4%, 3 tiles : -4.7%, 2 tiles : -5.5%, 1 tile : -6.2%.

Pruning[edit]

For how much time a pawn would need to prune, see Pruning Speed.

Pruning is done to maintain a tree's connection status. It is considered a Plant Cut task in the work tab, done before any other plant-cut related task. You can adjust how much Connection a pawn will prune to by selecting the tree.

Pruning speed is determined by the Pruning Speed stat. This stat is based on Global Work Speed and Plants skill. In addition, the Tree Connection meme gives +25% to pruning speed, applied after skills. Tree Connection gives the pruning speed boost through the Gauranlen Connection precept. Pruning is not impacted by health factors like Consciousness or Manipulation, so damaged pawns can prune just as well as healthy ones.

There's a 10,000 ticks (4 in-game hours) mandatory break time between two prunings of a gauranlen tree - this applies even if the first pruning was interrupted, such as by drafting, and it cannot be circumvented even if no other option is available to them by their work types and schedule. They will instead idle until they the time has elapsed.^{[Cooldown per tree?]}

When a pawn is connected to multiple gauranlen trees, they prioritize pruning the tree with the biggest difference between desired connection strength and current.

A baseline pawn at Plants 8 will have 100% pruning speed, and will prune at 1%/hr. A pawn of this skill would need to prune for 6 hours per day to maintain 4 dryads.

While pruning, pawns earn XP at about the same rate as normal plant work, but won't have to move, and therefore get more XP/hour.

Other Ideoligion Interactions[edit]

In addition to the speed boost, a pawn with Gauranlen Connection precept will get a non-stacking +3 moodlet for being connected to a tree. When not connected to a tree, they will get a mood penalty (scaling with colony expectations).

The gauranlen tree counts as a "super" tree to pawns with the Trees: Desired precept, and will give the "amazing tree" thought to such pawns.

Analysis[edit]

In order to get and sustain 4 dryads, you will have to prune each tree from 3.6 hours (Tree Connection, Plants 20) to 6 hours (Plants 8), before Global Work Speed. This is 3.6 - 6+ hours spent per day just to sustain the dryads. Sustaining 1 tree with 4 dryads is more efficient than 2 trees with 2 dryads, due to 2 trees losing connection faster.

How much benefit you'll get depends on the dryad in question:

Woodmaker: Woodmakers are space-efficient, but not work efficient compared to growing any other tree. Also can survive in extreme cold/heat.
- If you can't harvest trees, then somewhat competitive with fibercorn. With Tree Connection, Plants 14 dryads are equal to Plants 14 fibercorn. At higher plants skill, or with a Plants specialist, fibercorn becomes better for wood per work.
Berrymaker & Medicinemaker: Unless you are unable to grow plants at all, then the dryads are worse than their plant equivalent.
Barkskin & Clawer: Combat dryads, controlled just like an animal trained to Attack. Unlike animals, dryads can regenerate from all permanent wounds and even luciferium addiction by resting for 3 days. Both dryads are not great in solo combat, but can work together with colonists. It's a huge time cost, but can be useful.
Carrier: 1 pawn can sustain 4 half-speed haulers for a full waking day, for less than a full day's of work. If you don't need things hauled constantly, then you still have to prune the tree (or face a 5-day minimum penalty).
Gaumaker: Another way to create gauranlen trees. Useful for the Tree Connection moodlet, and only available with Tree Connection.

Because light impacts Global Work Speed, you'll want to place a standing lamp 8-9 tiles away. Alternately, you can place a torch lamp anywhere near the tree.

Using gauranlen trees in grow zones
As mentioned before, the Gauranlen tree is a tree and requires a 3 by 3 space around it to not be cut down. They can't be placed within 4 tiles of another gauranlen tree, so maximizing area to trees, you can have 4 trees in a 6*6 area(note that an additional 7 tiles from each side cannot have buildings without impeding connection). The ratio of tiles occupied by a tree to tiles occupied by a grow zone is 9:16, making for a 5*5 repeating pattern around each tree. At each protruding corner, where you shouldn't have walls, more grow tiles can be put in (as long as it's arable soil). Thus it is efficient to use the tree in this way if space available is an important factor.

Cutting[edit]

Cutting down a connected Gauranlen tree will kill all of its dryads and give a -15 mood to the connected pawn for 10 days. It will also prevent the previously connected pawn from connecting to a different tree until the mood debuff is gone. It will get selected for cutting using the chop tree drag command, so be careful.

-==Planting==
+==Growing==
-[[Gauranlen seeds]] can be planted on any tile with a fertility stat, but if planted within 7 tiles of artificial structures the tree will experience greater connection strength decay over time. It cannot be planted closer than 4 tiles to another Gauranlen tree, or within 1 tile of a grow zone, tree or cactus, and cannot be placed on top of bushes. Grow zones can be placed around a tree, as long as it's arable soil (not sand, as the grees can be planted on sand), but must be at least one tile away from the tree in all directions, as with other trees, plants *excluding grass*, cannot be within one tile. Plants are not manmade and thus do not affect connection decay. Planting plants on top of the moss will require a pawn to remove the moss, as with grass. They can be placed adjacent to walls, ignoring the connection decay penalty. They can be planted on [[Fungal gravel]] and do not need light to survive, thus they can be planted under thick mountain roof.
+Gauranlen trees are grown from a [[Gauranlen seed]], which must be harvested from a [[gauranlen pod]]. Gauranlen pods are spawned as an [[event]] that occurs roughly every 60 days (30 days with the [[Ideoligion#Memes|Tree Connection]] meme), or as a successful [[ritual]] reward. Harvesting a pod yields 1-2 Garuanlen seed.
+These seeds can be planted on any tile with a fertility stat. It cannot be planted closer than 4 tiles to another Gauranlen tree, or within 1 tile from any other tree or cactus. It also cannot be placed within 1 tile of a [[growing zone]]. However, if planted within 7 tiles of an artificial structure, the tree will experience a greater connection strength decay over time.
+Like the [[anima tree]]{{RoyaltyIcon}} and [[polux tree]]{{BiotechIcon}}, but unlike other trees, Gauranlen trees cannot be moved.
+Gauranlen trees heal slowly over time.{{Check Tag|How fast?|What is the healing rate in HP per unit time}}
+===Gauranlen moss===
+The tree will continously sprout [[gauranlen moss]] when it is planted. The moss has a [[beauty]] of {{+|10}}, but serves no other purpose. It must be cut if growing other plants. It will spread flames, but cannot be burnt down itself. It can grow on any tile with fertility and does not require light.
+==Linking Ceremony==
+An unconnected Gauranlen tree can produce up to 2 [[immature dryad]]s. For the tree to produced specialized dryads, a colonist must connect with the tree through a connection ceremony.
+The ceremony requires at minimum 1 connector capable of Plant Cutting. Spectators will increase the quality of the ceremony, with each spectator over one adding an additional 10% expected ceremony quality. Depending on quality, the connection strength will start between 25% and 45%. For every 2% of expected connection quality, additional tile with gauranlen moss will spawn within 7 tile of gauranlen tree.
+Even if connection reaches 0%, the pawn and tree will remain linked. The only way to break this link is for the connected colonist to die or be kidnapped by an enemy. Even if the colonist is [[Resurrector mech serum|resurrected]] or returned to a colony, the connection will be severed. There is a 30-day{{Check Tag|Verify|28 day? 30 day?}} cooldown between the unlink and relinking.
+Once you have linked to a tree, you can select a [[dryads|dryad caste]]. One tree can only have 1 caste of dryads, though you can have multiple dryads of that caste. Note that the connected pawn must have the "Basic" work type assigned to change the dryad caste after you have selected one.
 ==Connection==
-For the tree to produce any dryads a colonist must connect with the tree through a connection ceremony. The ceremony requires at minimum 1 connector. Additional spectators will increase the quality of the ceremony, with each spectator over one adding an additional 10% expected connection quality.

+*Decay is increased by (-0.6% / day) per connection strength.
+*Decay maxes out at -6% day, at 65-70% connection strength.
+Basically, the more dryads are sustained, the more pruning you will have to do per day.
+'''Artificial buildings'''
+''Any'' artificial building in the Gauranlen tree's 7-tile range will increase connection decay by up to -6.2% / day. The amount of decay is dependent solely on how close the nearest artificial building is. Having multiple buildings does not impact connection decay.
+In tile proximity to decay rate: 7 tiles : -1.7%, 6 tiles : -2.4%, 5 tiles : -3.2%, 4 tiles : -4%, 3 tiles : -4.7%, 2 tiles : -5.5%, 1 tile : -6.2%.
-You may select the dryad caste after the ceremony is completed. The connection made after the ceremony is permanent, even if the connection strength drops to 0%. The only way to break the connection is for the connected colonist to die, after which a 30-day countdown will ensue until another pawn may connect to the tree. The dryads connected to the tree will enter into cocoons and reform into immature dryads.
+== Pruning ==
+{{Stub|section=1|reason=Does the mandatory wait time between prunings apply to multiple trees or just the one}}
+{{For|how much time a pawn would need to prune|Pruning Speed}}
+Pruning is done to maintain a tree's connection status. It is considered a Plant Cut task in the [[work]] tab, done before any other plant-cut related task. You can adjust how much Connection a pawn will prune to by selecting the tree.
-You can see the connection strength your colonist has with the tree by selecting the tree. It ranges from 0% to 100%, and the colonist must prune the tree to increase their connection with it. The stronger the connection the more dryads that tree can produce and support. A tree can support at most 4 dryads maintaining a 75% connection strength. It is recommended to aim for a higher connection than you desire, since the connection will continue to fall even if recently pruned, including overnight. It is recommended to not have more than 1 gauranlen connection per pawn, since maintaining 2 will take 10-15 hours a day, and leaves almost no room to regain connection strength if some is lost by the pawn not pruning the tree.
+Pruning speed is determined by the [[Pruning Speed]] stat. This stat is based on [[Global Work Speed]] and Plants skill. In addition, the [[Ideoligion#Tree connection|Tree Connection]] [[meme]] gives {{+|25%}} to pruning speed, applied after skills. Tree Connection gives the pruning speed boost through the Gauranlen Connection [[precept]]. Pruning is not impacted by health factors like [[Consciousness]] or [[Manipulation]], so damaged pawns can prune just as well as healthy ones.
-==Connection Decay and buildings==
+There's a {{Ticks/gametime|10000}} mandatory break time between two prunings of a gauranlen tree - this applies even if the first pruning was interrupted, such as by [[draft]]ing, and it cannot be circumvented even if no other option is available to them by their [[work]] types and [[schedule]]. They will instead idle until they the time has elapsed.{{Check Tag|Cooldown per tree?|Is the 4hour cooldown per tree or is it any attempt at pruning}}
-Connection decay depends on nearby buildings and the current connection level. It starts out at 0% decay with 0 connection strength and 2.6% at any level above 0%, then subsequently increases by .6% decay/day/10% connection strength, capping out at 6% connection decay at around 65-70% connection strength.
-If there are any nearby buildings, connection decay is increased by up to 6.2% as a flat rate, meaning connection will continue to decay even at 0% connection strength, total connection decay does not exceed 12%/day. This is affected by closeness to the tree. In tile proximity to decay rate; 7:1.7, 6:2.4, 5:3.2, 4:4, 3:4.7, 2:5.5, 1:6.2. Only the closest building is counted. Natural walls (rock) do not affect decay, nor do their smoothed counterparts. Also, hoopstone recreation building seems to be an exception and does not apply the penalty.
+When a pawn is connected to multiple gauranlen trees, they prioritize pruning the tree with the biggest difference between desired connection strength and current.
-==Pruning==
+A baseline pawn at Plants 8 will have 100% pruning speed, and will prune at 1%/hr. A pawn of this skill would need to prune for 6 hours per day to maintain 4 dryads.
-Pruning the tree is done to maintain the tree's connection status with its connected pawn. Pruning is an activity under Plant Cut and will be prioritized according to the plant cut work priority. The speed at which pruning is done is governed by the Plants skill. A pawn with a higher Plants skill will be more efficient at maintaining the connection. Note that pruning speed is not governed by any work speed pawn stat. Contrary to the Gauranlen announcement, tree-believers have no advantage other than being able to select the gaumaker caste.
-A pawn at plants 0 will prune at a rate of 0.8%/hr, a pawn with plants 10 at 1%/hr, and 20 at 1.2%/hr. This is linear, but the time it takes to prune the tree is not, with maintaining connection strength with a low plants skill pawn taking a significantly longer amount of time, 7.5 hours with plants 0 and 6 hours with plants 10, then a minimum of 5 hours with plants 20.
+While pruning, pawns earn XP at about the same rate as normal plant work, but won't have to move, and therefore get more XP/hour.

+==Other Ideoligion Interactions==
+In addition to the speed boost, a pawn with Gauranlen Connection precept will get a non-stacking {{+|3}} [[mood]]let for being connected to a tree. When ''not'' connected to a tree, they will get a mood penalty (scaling with colony [[expectations]]).
-==Obtaining a Gauranlen Seed==
+The gauranlen tree counts as a "super" tree to pawns with the [[Ideoligion#Trees|Trees: Desired precept]], and will give the "amazing tree" thought to such pawns.
-Gauranlen seeds can be harvested from a [[gauranlen pod]]. Harvesting yields one Gauranlen Seed. Gauranlen Pods are spawned as an event that can be triggered naturally or as a successful religious event reward.
-==Gauranlen moss==
+== Analysis ==
-[[Gauranlen moss]] is spawned upon planting on tiles within 7 tiles of the tree. The moss has a beauty of 10. It will spread flames, but cannot be burnt down itself. The moss goes through regular cycles of dying and regrowing on approximately a 15 day cycle. It can grow on any tile with fertility and does not require light.
+In order to get and sustain 4 dryads, you will have to prune each tree from 3.6 hours (Tree Connection, Plants 20) to 6 hours (Plants 8), before Global Work Speed. This is 3.6 - 6+ hours spent per day just to sustain the dryads. Sustaining 1 tree with 4 dryads is more efficient than 2 trees with 2 dryads, due to 2 trees losing connection faster.
-==Gauranlen interaction with religion==
+How much benefit you'll get depends on the dryad in question:
-There is a Gauranlen connection precept that sometimes follows the Tree connection meme, pawns in an ideology with that precept will want a Gauranlen connection. If a pawn in the same religion does have a connection, they get a non-stacking +3 mood bonus. It counts as a tree in interacting with the [[Precept]] Trees.
+*[[Woodmaker]]: Woodmakers are space-efficient, but not work efficient compared to growing any other tree. Also can survive in extreme cold/heat.
+** If you can't harvest trees, then somewhat competitive with [[fibercorn]]. With Tree Connection, Plants 14 dryads are equal to Plants 14 fibercorn. At higher plants skill, or with a [[Roles#Plants specialist|Plants specialist]], fibercorn becomes better for wood per work.
+*[[Berrymaker]] & [[Medicinemaker]]: Unless you are unable to grow plants at all, then the dryads are worse than their plant equivalent.

+*[[Gaumaker]]: Another way to create gauranlen trees. Useful for the Tree Connection moodlet, and only available with Tree Connection.
-==using trees in grow zones==
+Because light impacts Global Work Speed, you'll want to place a [[standing lamp]] 8-9 tiles away. Alternately, you can place a [[torch lamp]] anywhere near the tree.
-AS mentioned before, the Gauranlen tree is a tree and requires a 3 by 3 space around it to not be cut down. They cant be placed within 4 tiles of another tree, so maximizing area to trees, you can have 4 trees in a 6*6 area(note that an additional 7 tiles from each side cannot have buildings without impeding connection). The ratio of tiles occupied by a tree to tiles occupied by a grow zone is 9:16, making for a 5*5 repeating pattern around each tree. At each protruding corner, where you shouldn't have walls, more grow tiles can be put in (as long as it's arable soil). Thus it is efficient to use the tree in this way if space available is an important factor.
-==unconnected trees==
+'''Using gauranlen trees in grow zones'''
-Unconnected trees spawn up to two immature [[Dryads]] and will undergo normal moss growth. It is possible to use them purely as outside decoration, as the moss and tree are beautiful. They can easily increase any outdoor space's beauty without any cost(other than planting the tree).
