Outdated [ M|R ] Mad Doctor's Experiements [sg]v09

The reefpod idea looks really useful for my farming mod. I'd love to have all the underwater items and object farmables only be plantable underwater.
The liquids one would also be neat to use with my liquid plants, since they're already hanging objects they could drip their respected liquids as they hang.
The Bleeding Sickness idea would make for a great survival mod, adding in injuries and sickness to your adventures. I'd love to see that.

I'm not sure what the others could be used for, but they all seem promising. Great ideas all around.

 

Swat, ILU so much now.

 

So, did you draw any inspiration from Dig or Die when you made plants absorb nearby water supplies?

 

Hi, it looks like the water drinking script no longer works.

Code:

Info: Remove liq Function Activated
Error: Exception while invoking lua function 'update'. (LuaException) Error code 2, [string "/objects/farmables/wheat/waterR.lua"]:31: (LuaException) Cannot coerce lua value into a string

 

Works better, thanks. Looks like my sprinklers experiments are mostly failing, though, so I tried to put water one tile under the soil where the wheat grows, but it doesn't find it. What should I change so it only looks there?
A way to make a sprinkler system viable would be to have two timers: one that gets and stock water, and another one, slower, that makes the crop drink part of its stock. The way it works actually, the wheat have to be underwater to avoid losing half of the crops.

Edit: I tried some experiments with automatoes. I was worried that the seed is lost if the player tries to plant it in another tile that it were set to use. I tried to put break instead of smash. I was sent back to my ship. ^^

 

Forgot to do it, here it is:

Code:

[17:37:31.591] Error: Failed to instantiate object for placement preview. automatoseed {} : (LuaException) Error code 3, [string "/objects/farmables/automato/ironG.lua"]:7: <name> expected near 'break'
