Watering Hose Mod?

[El-Taco]

I think it would be cool if someone made a hose mod.. just for the thrill of it, imagine say a "well" that you can engage with, when you do, your sprite is now holding a hose and maybe your tethered to said "well" or point with a radius or time limit, Water amount Pre-set value, what ever variables you want it to have, and you just water the tiles all around you auto, no clicking, but rather as soon as you activate the "well/Hose station" you just turn into rain man of a 1 tile radius until dis engaged, i don't think it would break the game or make it better, But I think it would be fun to See it done,
Who doesn't want to run around the farm auto watering emulating a gardening hose? your still doing a task, its just made easier and would feel different, i just want to see it in practice if anyone is up for the task, i think the hardest part would be to include a tether animation? considering you would just build it like a watering can with other aspects and parameters, like instead of Activating a Key or click to make it "True", just set the bad boy to "True" as soon as equipped or activated, but only in range of said station that is obviously set up with the "watering can", so its like a can that revolves around a type of point you could imagine, like... re skin re program a well... if engage with said Re worked well you now have X-tile radius where you are now just Rain man, you could even make it if you go to break said perimeter to make it "UNTRUE" for your sprite to break the barrier unless dis engaged to create the idea of a Hose length and resistance (hell add a sprite animation every time you hit radius as if you just hit the length of you hose you "stop up/shake" animation), but to animate a hose sprite tethered as well.. you got me, i have no idea. (Hell the hose could be a pretty decent Well Upgrade)

Sounds a little dismissive. There is nothing wrong with wanting/requesting something but I do think they would probably have better luck bringing the topic to nexusmods.com

I haven't seen anything like this but there might be something in the works. I did come across this a while back: Pipe Irrigation[www.nexusmods.com]

It's not the same, but could be fun to try out I think :>

An "easy" watering hose mod idea might be modding a scythe to look and sound like a hose spraying water when you swing it, which applies the upgraded watering can effect to the nearby tiles when swung and might need to be refilled like a watering can. But maybe that isn't as simple to mod as it sounds.

Of course that is far more simple than your idea, but its a stepping stone at least.

I like that idea :D Also, modding in general is not as easy as many people might think :> It requires a lot of studying, patience and dedication. And especially for something like suggested here I think. But it's a fun idea and wouldn't surprise me if something like it turns up. The modding community for this game is very active after all
