@Sco You might want to consider Prepare For Winter.

Hi, great mod that I've been looking for for a while. However, in my dedicated server I couldn't protect the plants at all, neither indoors, nor indoors with a campfire or stove, nor outdoors right next to a campfire. I saw that you wrote that maybe there is a java mod patch where I can find it?

Thank you for the update. The pipes mod has been reworked since the last times I took a closer look at it so I don't know how it works.

Never mind my previous post,
Both mods worked fine as long as I stayed in range of the crops. I verified that both the cold damage and the water functions were working.
I left the cell of my base, went over 300 tiles away for only about 8 hours, leaving an antique oven on. Upon returning the water levels on all my crops was 0 and they had all died of dehydration, not cold. This despite placing the irrigation mod AFTER this mod in the load order. All the crops were well-watered when I had left. Upon waiting a bit they received 20 water verifying that the pipes were again working.

So I tested it and surprisingly, it works just fine with Irrigation pipes for farming and water supply . Which is awesome, so thanks a lot !

Will it still work if I leave the cell for a few days?

Can you give more information?

Guessing that this also isn't compatible with Water Pipes mod?

New beta version
New options: update time in minutes, optional removal of plants.

Does this work with the Greenhouse Building Set mod ? I think the glass roofs from that mod let rain through, so I'm unsure if they actually protect them or not

There may be a java patch on discord.

Hello, excellent idea that I have been looking for a long time. Thank you for this. However, In my dedicated server I couldn't get to protect the plants at all, neither indoors, indoors with campfire or stove, or outside right next to a campfire. Do you know why that could be? Using the default settings of the mod, but my sandbox settings are set to very cold.

It has been confirmed in MP that campfire and being in a house can protect the crops. What heating source do you have in mind?

Unloaded areas would need additional handling to be supported, that's true. It's the opposite of trapping where you need to be far to catch something.

Won't work in MP, server can't read heating sources for some reason.
Also crops will die when you are on a trip (same reason).
Idea: allow winter farming indoors only.
