Brief text description of the construction of SDF:

The Southern Delight Fruitery construction will be based on a number of assumptions by the architect since at the time of its architecting, the owner didn't have use of the indonesian bee hives tech and is only relying on the information of others as presented through word of mouth and on the ATITD forums.

Some of the assumptions include but are not limited to:
     1. fruit tree parentage determination radius is 16 coordinates
     2. aromatic honey type determination radius is 16 coordinates
     3. aromatic honey type based on random choice of other one nearby tree and associated tree
     4. aromatic honey type will attempt to find a new target tree if connection tree is removed

The final result of the orchard will be four columns of groups of 3 trees of a particular type along the column. Each column will have 26 groups, with 104 groups of trees across all 4 columns... 1 group per theoretically possible citrus fruit type. Construction of the 4 columns will begin in the center of the columns, and spread from the center to the edges. This gives 8 expansion legs that will simultaneously be worked upon to ensure a more efficient construction. As an added bonus, the arrangement of the groups will account for all honey combinations when completed.

Here is a brief description of how each expansion leg will expand to form a new group of trees:

Step 1: Targeting
3 trees on the end of an expansion need to be changed to a new target fruit. 5 more hives are built in the next available expansion group spot. The new fruit trees that come from these 5 hives will be targeted to the next citrus fruit to be added to that expansion leg. After each selective mulching of the trees on the end, the 3 fruit trees of hives previously on the end are also mulched. This continues until the 5 new hives have fruit trees of the desired target.

Step 2: Integration
The 3 hives that were previously on the end are mulched until they match the desired target fruit. The aromatic honeys of these new hives should be the combination of the new integrated fruit and the last completed fruit in the expansion step previous to it.

Step 3: Completion
2 of the 5 hives are removed from the new group on the end, and the remaining 3 will be used in the next expansion beginning with step 1.
