Structures+ Questions - Watering (internal / beehive)

[()Alf]

I put the internal pipe to the square and is checked watered, still my s+ crop with boundary is not watered.
Also the s+ Beehive, which say is watering nearby croppods is not watering those croppods.

I did not put any seed or fertilizer in it, i would not see that watering is dependent on other issues like seed or fertilizer.

Any Idea?

Have you actually checked how much water is in those plots?

The hive does not "irrigate" them... But the water appears all the same.

Source of water is pipe from intake.
I put internal square-pipes beneath all used croppods (with that adjustable borders), also put this s+ beehive onto it directly and pt those croppods on it.

Toilet is working this way without having an irrigation pipe, just having a wall with an internal pipe. The problem then, if i need to use a pipe would be, that i only could water 2 fields but not inbetween of 4 fields, due to it only snaps to the middle of length, not at corners.

Placement order i practiced:
1st internal pipes watered, 2nd beehive, 3rd bordered croppods.
Without the s+ beehive as first try was no success.


GREAT BUT, i understood, that a S+ Beehive would water "near" croppods, it doesn't say, that you need a watersource.

I think you are misunderstanding.

Beehives have nothing to do with internal pipes or intakes. They don't connect to them.

They wirelessly send water to nearby crop plots within range.

So, why i don't have watered the croppods, when i place the S+ Beehive inbetween of a 2x2 field, which was my first intent and understanding?

As I initially suggested. Have you actually checked their inventory and their water level?

Hives do NOT "irrigate" crop plots. So the label will always say "not irrigated". But the water still appears. Or at least it should do if the hive is fed and working.

So it would irrigate but no showing that it does on the croppods - so keeps saying 0/600?

A crop plot has a label. "Not irrigated" when no pipes/tap. This is normal for the hive.
But it will still fill the crop plot with water.

Feed the hive. Plant your crop. and it should work. You should see water in the plot.

[()Alf]

How can i see water in the crop, when it is 0/600 ?
I also had fed the S+Beehive with rare flower and it produced honey, still 0/600 water and "not irrigated"

Not normal.

Something else is weird with your setup then. What plots are you using? S+ plots? Vanilla? Another mod?

[()Alf]

Those S+ Crops with customizable borders.
Didn't try the normal S+ large crop pots

[()Alf]

Can it be irritating, have put a ceiling first above all before placing the cops?

Btw. thanks, that you help to try to figure out my problem. :D

I've never used internal pipes before, so use the normal ones instead. Makes it easier to troubleshoot, and once it is working properly, I hide the pipes connected to the water tap.

Which by, you never mentioned that you were using taps. I don't know if that's because internal pipes don't need them or you just forgot to mention them or misreading on my part.

[zerassar]

On a side note... Even when you get the hive working it only functions when not in stasis.
So if you, and other players, are away from that location for long periods... The plants will die.

Toilet or industrial cooker are working without tabs or pipes, just the internal are needed.

Oh, thats too bad, eventually i would need external watering then - still the internal pipes seem not to water crop pots and finally would need to use taps.

Yes, my cooker doesn't need taps either (I have no need for toilets).

But my crop plots do.
