Why jungle saplings drop so rarely?
If I fell pine or aspen I could get 3 saplings. As for jungle trees, I fell 3 of them and got only one sapling.
Is that behavior intentionally programmed? Or probability of dropping of saplings is equal for all trees but I am just unlucky?

Re: Jungle tree saplings
I looked in the code, and it seems that the probability is the same for both trees (1/20). You should even get more saplings per jungle trees because it has more leaves. But if you cut only one tree in a dense forest, the nearby trunks will prevent some leaves from popping (a leaves block pops when there is no trunk in a radius of 3 blocks) and so you will get less saplings.
Or maybe you were simply unlucky…

Yes. Leaves from felled tree stick to neighbour trees.Gael de Sailly wrote:I looked in the code, and it seems that the probability is the same for both trees (1/20).

I already complained about that weird behavior.

Re: Jungle tree saplings
The problem is that a leaves block is not linked to a tree. It would be difficult to code. Metadata are unappropriate because too slow for a huge quantity of nodes. param2 might be a solution, but it's not as handy to manipulate (values from 0 to 255). I made an experiment last year, here.

Don't just wait for saplings to drop, gets some leaves (about 20..99) !Sergey wrote:Why jungle saplings drop so rarely?
Then repeatedly place and pickup those leaves,
and with some patience, you can get a sapling from every leaf.
