Great question @wardred. I think only the FG trees should feature the small branches you’ve presented in the screenshot. MG trees can have the thicker branches but thinner branches should be removed (i.e. hidden by the leaves). BG tree clusters will only be the trunks with all branches non existent ( fully hidden by their leaves)

I’m planning to spend some time this week researching foliage methods. Look for a post from me about this and clarifying things like level of detail in the nature team post.
