Changes
128 trees achievement unlock removed / achievement removed
250 trees achievement unlock removed / achievement removed
100 tree achievement unlock added / achievement added
Notes
This achievement functions as the other achievements and will unlock in all future forests / lobbies with 100 or more trees. The max players per lobby (250) has not been changed so you will be able to go above 100 trees easily to obtain the achievement for multiple players.
I have not really tested this because I do not have 100 computers, but I may schedule another "Developer tree time" event for TS2023 in which I will host a lobby next year for the purposes of testing this achievement, talking to trees, achieving it for those who requested it yesterday and probably talking about my new game which everyone should wishlist to support my work in general. The amount of time I can spend on TS2024 development next year will be directly affected by my work on this game, so please be patient, it will likely be later in the year if / when I can spend time on it:
Halloween mode will now deactivate automatically when Christmas mode is activated and vice versa
Notes
It was oddly satisfying to virtually / hand decorate a Christmas tree. The lights were done meticulously. I put the star on last! It would be nice for TS2024 to be able to decorate trees in a similar manner as the player. I think that would be neat, we shall see.
Christmas tree ornaments do not support shaking because the game does not currently support shaking cosmetics. Normal cosmetics are also not supported (i.e. Ties, shirts, etc.) due to the amount of custom decorations.
Servers must be restarted and updated.
The Christmas mode best compliments the following settings
Weather Snow
Season Winter
Time of day "day"
Tree type "Christmas Tree"
Wind off
I put this out a little early so that trees can enjoy it for this event: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1916970/discussions/0/3464983493956350593/?snr=1_5_9_

Weather Fog

Enjoy! 🌳🎃
Halloween Stuff?
Is anyone interested in me adding a button or something that adds some Halloween atmosphere and or themed gimmicks? . I was originally planning on adding something small, but my time is being annihilated at them moment. If it is important to trees I can spend a little bit off time on it hopefully before Halloween.

More trading cards are on the way! Someone requested them in a thread recently, and I have not started them yet and will likely not do so for several weeks because I am doing other things. In the mean time, please feel free to make suggestions about what you would like to see in the TS2023 cards this time around.
