Moisture Farming Enhanced

Tired of not being able to farm in dry climates?
Well now you can farm the moisture out of the air!

New update! Added a fourth tier of Moisture Collector. It has the same collection rate as the third tier, but with far better storage.

Inspired by Trinimac's Moisture Farming mod, I decided to expand his mod! His mod is located at the link below: (Note: You do NOT need Moisture Farming to use Moisture Farming Enhanced. Moisture Farming Enhanced is 100% standalone. I simply used Moisture Farming as inspiration to build my mod)

My mod features four moisture collectors with new models and with the following stats:

1) Moisture Collector: Manual operation (trains farming), 525% worse than Well III
-Research Requirements: Tech Level 3, Wells III, 1 Ancient Science Book
2) Moisture Collector II: Manual operation (trains farming), 212.5% worse than Well III
-Research Requirements: Tech Level 4, Moisture Farming, 2 Ancient Science Books
3) Auto Moisture Collector: Automatic collection, 108% worse than Well III
-Research Requirements: Tech Level 5, Moisture Farming II, 1 AI Core
4) Auto Water Tank Collector: Same stats as above collector, but with 200 storage space!

Note: The 4th tier, Auto Water Tank Collector, is NOT a direct upgrade from Auto Moisture Collector. This is because it has a larger building footprint, so it needs to be build separately.

In total this means you'll need Tech Level 5, 3 Ancient Science Books, and 1 AI Core to learn everything! So what do these numbers mean? Let's take the Auto Moisture Collector as an example. At 108% worse production than a Well III with 100% water available, this means that it is roughly 8% worse than a Well III with 50% water available. Therefore, Moisture Farming is only truly useful in environments with less than 50% water.

The fourth tier of Moisture Collector was inspired by Auto-Hauler Wells by Muggins, which is a mod that adds an extra tier of regular wells with huge storage space. Here is the link:

This should be compatible with most mods. The only change to was adding the new research and buildings. Because I changed the moisture farming building entirely, it's also compatible with Trinimac's mod, although I'm not sure why you'd need to use both.
