Valuable Underground Trees

Description
This mod makes underground trees more valuable than surface trees. Value is balanced and proportionate to the depth at which these trees normally grow (x2 - fungiwood & tower-caps, x3 - black-caps, goblin-caps, spore trees & tunnel tubes, x5 - blood thorns and nether caps). This makes sense - dwarves would see subterranean wood as more comforting, while other races would see it as exotic and scarce. The most valuable trees, blood thorn and nether cap, also have unique properties and colors which make them desirable.

seems like its crashing the game with advanced agriculture?

I did notice in my playthroughs with this mod that Nether Caps blocks make really valuable rooms. I would not call them overpowered, though. Steel blocks are much higher in value, obsidian blocks have the same value as x3 value trees (and are infinite if you make an obsidian farm). I do frequently run out of Nether caps for construction, and newly-grown nether cap trees drop only 1 log.

@PolyJohn this particular request re: underground trees is to make it more valuable for crafts, furniture, etc, without making it overpowered for constructions. With the steam version, floors & walls are the best thing you can spend on for your bedrooms.

I did not find a way to modify the wooden blocks reaction.

@neph I see you commenting this request all over. Why 3?

Suggestion: make it such that you only get 3 blocks out of underground logs?

Awesome, excellent mod. Should be default in the game

Caught myself out first embark since installing that I couldn't afford my usual embark profile... Because I had underground wood items! Time to rework that profile...
