Stone axe vs Metal axe (blocks)

The ratio between the blocks a log gives with a stone-axe vs a metal-axe seems to be 4:5. Or Floor(4/5 * blocks-metal) vs Ceil(5/4 * blocks-bone).
Potential misfits: Mound, Plane, Terebinth, Towercap, Gnome's Cap(incomplete).

• It seems there is some potential random rounding in play. Which would explain some of the different and off-beat reported outcomes. (I think this was also mentioned on the forum ... somewhere)

For boards (bone-saw vs metal-saw) the ratio value seem less straightforward.

Considering that the amount of blocks and boards also are linked. I figure a log has just one value which is used for all 4 cases. Might not be that useful, other than nice to know.

Max block per log exception.

Birch, 85%, Metal axe, 49 blocks (both logs) -- max:57 -- 57*85% = 48.45 (seems to fit, presuming general rounding up) --.MvGulik. 05:42, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

Assuming the number of logs a partial grown tree generates is related to: Tree_Generated_Blocks/Max_Log_Blocks > N => N+1 Logs.
Where "Tree_Generated_Blocks" is some resource related value (unspecified base units) (TreeType_ResMax*GrownPercentage).
Where "N" is [TreeType_maxlogs, N(-1), 1]
Unknown cutoff point-1. ie: where a chopped tree will produce blocks instead of logs. (do they ...)
Unknown cutoff point-2. ie: where a chopped tree will produce branches. Might be 5 or 10 branches. (no tree-stump => 4 blocks => 20 branches)
