Chop wood is used to mark trees or Saguaro cacti (hereafter, 'trees') to be cut down for their wood. It will only mark trees that have achieved at least 40% growth.
There are two variations:
- Click Chop Wood then click one or more trees individually.
- Click Chop Wood then click and drag to select multiple trees.
Tree marked in this way are marked with yellow shears.
Trees, even if they have not achieved 40% growth, can be harvested by reverse designation.
There are two variations:
- Select a tree, click Chop Wood.
- Hold ⇧ Shift, select multiple trees, click Chop Wood.

Select a colonist assigned to plant cutting, right-click a marked tree, click Prioritize cutting. The time it takes a colonist to chop down a tree it determined by their Plant Work Speed.
