Yeah, I'm having an issue after the newest update now as well.
placing Water well in desert, water well shows "not irrigated" same for any nearby water tanks... the watertaps work fine... seeing if i can find a work around.

Alright, I do not see any fix that we players can do to make water-wells irrigate a water tank after the last update.
all we can do is daisy chain the water tanks from river/lake/puddle.
although if your daisy chain of water tanks reach the water-well it will irrigate the well but that is not a fix.
--time to wait for another fix (patch). (or if someone figures out some bizarre thing that fixes it.
---i'm just going to play at a different base till then.

Yes my water well show 1000/1000 water but still says Not Irrigated.

Same here, can't connect intakes to it and while you can connect a tap it doesn't link to the rest of the reservoir system. Curious what all the delays were for putting out this map, doesn't seem like 'play testing' was one of them.

I assume no one has found a work around for this yet?

I have no problems with this.
Built base on a platform above. Put Water Intake at water, then placed a Water Tank above on the platform as it showed the blue arrow inside that its connected. Then placed a water tap inside the blue range of the tank.
This vid shows it: https://youtu.be/mwktwoJyeAU?si=yyL16pVcJBLwi3IA&t=470

If your base is far away from the water intake, you need more tanks to connect them as chain until water reaches your base.

The problem is with the water well, not the intake.

That's what I was thinking, what pipes

no pipes exist is ASA, is not needed and removed for better serverperformence, you place the water intake in the water and it pulls the water over a areaffect to any other, in cropplots, in waterstorages (have is own Waterareeffect) something what can use water.

you can bring the Water over the whole map, 1 Waterintake and Waterstorages on the corner with a new waterstorage on thiy corner and step for step far far away you have water ;)

It took me a few tries but I managed to get mine to work. I just had to pick up my well a few times for it to say Irrigated.

The water system is basically WiFi now.
Place down a foundation in the water source.
Attach an intake to the foundation.
Now you have a radius of water to draw from.
Place a nearby the water tank/storage.
After placing the tank go up to it and hold down E to get the radial wheel.
Select Show Radius on the wheel.
Now you will have a sphere showing how far your water extends.
Place another water tank/storage inside that sphere to extend the next sphere.
You can go across the map if you want or up mountains as long as the new tank touches the last placed tank's sphere.
I prefer the pipes but this is what we have now.
