Automatic Irrigator - Updated

NOTE: This is an updated version of Automatic Irrigator by Spacedino[community.playstarbound.com].
It is standalone. You don't need the original version!



These automated irrigators will keep your soil fresh and your crops growing!

It will only work on connected patches of tilled soil and has a decent, but limited range.

You need to provide the irrigators with water. By default, you can use Water or Healing Water .



It needs to be supplied with water to work and can water the ground next to itself.

It will only work on connected patches of tilled soil and has a decent, but limited range.

- Irrigation Range: 40 blocks
- Irrigation Speed: 1 action/second *

(* Switches to a longer cooldown when there's no work to do)



Uses pipes to reach multiple fields as well as water supply.

In order to function, it should be connected to a water supply with pipes.

- Irrigation Range (Pipe): 100 blocks
- Irrigation Speed: 2 actions/second * **

(* Switches to a longer cooldown when there's no work to do)



Pipes should be placed in the background.

Pipes are used to make a connection between:
Water supply ➔ Pipe Irrigator ➔ Tilled soil

Any container holding a liquid is considered a water supply.
This mod adds two containers you can use: Automatic Irrigator and Water Barrel.



Can be used to collect, store and supply water.

When placed underwater, it automatically fills with water.

Water will be transferred to the barrel, and any water source will eventually be drained, except oceans.

Anyone can update this mod, if I'm not available to do it myself in the future.

Automatic Irrigator is a great mod, but it was greatly outdated.

The last update was in Feb 21, 2016 (before Starbound mods were available on Workshop).

I've taken the initiative to update and upload it here.
