Recently, I was exploring a new IC2 world and found this bizarre creation:
A single rubber tree, stuck in the ground! I simply had to dig it out (mostly because I didn't have any rubber).
One crazy rubber tree, eh? It was around this point that my shovel broke.
As I was digging out the tree, I noticed that its leaves had replaced the dirt the tree was growing in. Better than the alternative, I guess, but what could have possibly caused the tree to grow in this fashion?
There's a cave in the background here. I see now, the tree must have intersected with the cave in world generation! Wait, what?!
The size of the hole I made to dig out that pesky tree. Man was that crazy. Any thoughts?
Another note: These pictures were taken on the "fast" graphic setting, but the rubber tree leaves still had the "fancy" leaf texture. Was that deliberate, or is as buggy as this tree?
