So I plant giant spruce and jungle trees on 2X2 platforms in the water so I have somewhere soft to land if I fall when cutting them down.
I had just cut down a giant spruce and was swimming around collecting saplings and fighting drowned when I noticed this sapling just continuously circling under the platform so I did some testing.
Under a large ceiling objects can travel quite a long way in more or less the same direction, particularly if tossed horizontally, and then stop.
But under a 2X2 or 2X1 they can get caught in a loop, constantly changing direction to stay under the ceiling.
Does anybody know why they "prefer" to stay under, and halfway inside, blocks rather than going out the side into open water?
I notice that one log disappeared from view when the saplings on the platform grew into a new tree, I'm thinking that the tree might worked like an item elevator so that the log traveled up inside the tree trunk until it either popped out the side partway up or popped out the top of the tree? But if so why didn't it pop up onto the platform before the tree grew?

Just testing.
