I just did some quick testing in Debug mode and it seemed to be working okay for the purpose of snow accumulating in barrels.

Is it possible to use this mod just for the snow accumulation feature? I've long used Snow is Water, but it hasn't been updated to b42.

@Tajmoney I am having the same issue
Tajmoney Jan 10 @ 10:20am 
Everything was working but now I cannot do anything with my plumbed sink. There is a water collector one level up with water in it. I plumbed the sink. It used to let me fill water bottles or wash in the sink, but now there are no options.

저도 이사람같은 증상있었는데 월드에 젠되어있는 빗물받이통 쓸때는 그랬고 제작해서 사용하니까 고쳐졌어요
I had the same issue. Solved it by crafting a new rain collector, not using ones already built on wold map.

If I put the barrel on the roof of the second floor (third floor?)

Can I connect to a sink on ground floor?

@civilwarsoldier103
It's okay to add it in the middle of a save
civilwarsoldier103 Jan 9 @ 10:00am 
If I add this mod to an existing save do you guys know if it will break it?

@chickenwing there is a mod that fixes that

This does not work with sinks located in the basement.
joey Jan 5 @ 9:45pm 
Appreciate the answers guys! I had some trouble doing this earlier but will give it another go tomorrow.
Sick Boy Jan 5 @ 8:51pm 
Joey, you can plumb a house you built. I did it. I used log walls, added a door and built a roof. I put rain collectors on the roof and installed a sink below. It worked fine.

@joey
All connection conditions are the same as in version 41
joey Jan 5 @ 4:14pm 
@SkyBlue thanks — so a building that was NOT originally present on the map can never have plumbing with this implementation?
SkyBlue  [author] Jan 5 @ 2:10pm 
@Deathbymoshpit
Does the same issue occur if you disable all other mods and test with only this mod activated?
Deathbymoshpit Jan 5 @ 2:02pm 
Mod works perfectly the first time you enable it. Then next time you log out and play again, it seems the Right Click Crafting option is gone, nor can you plumb anything you hadn't connected. If anyone has a fix, that would rock, but otherwise make sure you do everything you need to in one session
SkyBlue  [author] Jan 4 @ 10:55pm 
@joey
buildings originally present on the map, not those built by the player, will still be designated as "Indoor" even if their walls or roof are demolished. As a result, installing a rain collector there will not collect rainwater.
joey Jan 4 @ 10:39pm 
hey SkyBlue, thanks for the mod.

Can you please clarify on this part:

"3. Demolishing the walls or roof of a pre-existing building on the map does not change its designation to "Outdoor."
(The "Indoor" designation is fixed based on coordinates.)"

Does this mean a structure that is entirely player-built, with a sink brought in from elsewhere, cannot be plumbed?

@B.A. Baracus
Make sure you have activated the mod in your save file.
SkyBlue  [author] Jan 4 @ 9:26pm 
@Vas1
This is a mod aimed at rolling back the rainwater catchment system, not the construction menu, so no additional features are planned.
B.A. Baracus Jan 4 @ 2:52pm 
How do you enable the wold right-click method of carpentry?? It's not available for me at all when I right click, even with hammer, nails, and planks on me...
Vas1 Jan 4 @ 2:40pm 
Thank a lot for this mod! Would you be able to add the rest of the classic build menu? Since there isn't even a hotkey for the build menu, it's such a hassle to do so many clicks when building a wooden floor for example. Cheers!
Sick Boy Jan 3 @ 9:40am 
This mod WILL NOT WORK if you construct a rain barrel using the new build menu.

The rain barrels will ONLY connect if you create a rain barrel using the old Right-click -> Carpentry -> Rain Collector method.

Ay man. I have a problem. Chrome sink is withing 3x3 grid of the rain collector, which is on higher floor. I plumbed the sink, and it doesn't detect the skink, only as debug tile option. Anything i can do with that?
This mode works flawlessly. It's very useful. Thank you for creating it!
Soodoe Jan 1 @ 3:46pm 
Does this only work with rain barrels made through the right click menu?
Soodoe Jan 1 @ 3:38pm 
Plumbing was working, after restart it won't give water or let me reconnect it
matty.dellindo Jan 1 @ 11:50am 
So I have downloaded the mod but cannot see where to enable it as it doesn't show on my mod list.

Left farmhouse north of riverside factory, i added rain collectors above the sink and above the washing machine, i managed to plumb the sink but no water comes through, and the washing machine wouldnt let me plumb it at all, any advice?
Pe Jan 1 @ 4:49am 
Can you make it collect snow? Like the B41, it can only collect rain, not snow. But in B42 it is already possible to collect both

Agent 0-20 Dec 30, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
Can't plumb the rain collectors.
SkyBlue  [author] Dec 30, 2024 @ 9:21am 
@JazzMano
Plumbing can only be connected to the Rain Collector Barrel located on the floor above.
JazzMano Dec 30, 2024 @ 7:47am 
Ok i managed to make it work but huppon restart, my faucet doesn't take the water anymore from the bathtub that take it from the rain collector above it, here's my setup:
Roof - 4 Rain collectors
1st floor - 2 Bathtub
Ground floor - 2 Sink in range of the bathtubs (just below or 1 case away)
It was working when i used the debug menu to make it rain but now, upon restart, only the bathub seam to be connected and not the faucet, i struggle to find where it went wrong.
skepsis_ Dec 29, 2024 @ 12:36pm 
I was able to figure out what the issue I was having with the mod is. My sink existed on a part of the structure that was an addition I added to expand the space by tearing down the walls. I've now discovered I can only use the sink when I'm standing on the new addition I built. Not an issue at all and the mod works great! I hope this can help anyone having the same issue.

Yes, 3*3
_Rinxcii Dec 29, 2024 @ 12:02am 
can multiple barrels be plumbed to one sink like b41?
