This mod adds simple sprinklers for Hytale, to automatically water your tilled soil. From iron to mithril, each variant will have their own range.
⚠️ Warning: Early Access
The game Hytale is in early access, and so is this project! Features may be incomplete, unstable, or change frequently. Please be patient and understanding as development continues.
Note coming from before Hytale Update 4 or mod update 1.3.0
After updating from any mod version prior to 1.3.0, break and replace all existing sprinklers in your world, otherwise they will not work!
You can craft them at the Farmer's Workbench, after upgrading it to at least tier 4. Each variant will water tilled soil within a specified range in a square.
The following variants are available:
- Iron: Tier 4, Range 1
- Thorium: Tier 5, Range 2
- Cobalt: Tier 6, Range 3
- Adamantite: Tier 7, Range 4
- Mithril: Tier 8, Range 8
You can also upgrade the sprinkler with a funnel, allowing you to plant seeds within its range by interacting with it whilst holding seeds in your hand.
The following things are on my To-Do list, which will get adressed. Suggestions welcome!
- Add animations and effects when watering
- Optimize code to make it not run every tick, but every "watering cycle" (currently configured to 24 ingame hours for the soil itself). This would make it more server-load friendly, but stop "insta-responding" to newly tilled soil. An interaction would be added for this
- An extra tab in the Farmer's Workbench for sprinklers, if feasible. If not maybe a new workbench for sprinklers? We'll see...
- Variants that emit light. Either as extra item or by right-clicking a sprinkler with a light source (torches)
- Variants that auto-till soil. Either as extra item or by right-clicking a sprinkler with a hoe
- Letting you "spread" seeds when right-clicking the sprinkler with seed bags in your hand
