My working version of the mod can be found at

Damntry preferred that I upload it myself so that I could directly respond to any issues

Hi, I took the code for the Irrigation mod and after some tinkering got it working for project zomboid v40.43. I sent you a friend request so we could maybe talk about getting it onto this workshop page

This mod was legendary. If irrigation doesn't get added to the base game, I'll try to take a look at updating this mod. No promises. But damn do I miss this mod...
Spyware006 14 Aug, 2020 @ 2:41pm 
yeah

Would love for someone to fix this lost gem

Im a software dev but I would need time to familiarize and learn the basics for this game, and honestly I have zero will on putting the hours needed.
You are welcome to try and fix it though, it would be an... enlightening experience :cozybethesda:.
RedBeardedJoe 31 Mar, 2020 @ 6:31am 
Ah gotcha they have colleges for coding if you would like too
Damntry  [author] 30 Mar, 2020 @ 8:06pm 
No, I know almost nothing of modding in this game. What I did was some basic text updating and code rearranging, but I never went any deeper.
RedBeardedJoe 30 Mar, 2020 @ 2:57pm 
why can you not get too work are you not experienced enough too make it work again
Damntry  [author] 30 Mar, 2020 @ 12:51pm 
Not as far as I know. It's a shame nobody picked this up since I think an experienced modder would have no problem making it work again without too much hassle.
RedBeardedJoe 29 Mar, 2020 @ 3:39pm 
are there any mods like this yet or do you not know
Spyware006 27 Mar, 2020 @ 6:43am 
was great

40?
adres4t 18 Nov, 2019 @ 11:18am 
@Damntry Build 41 is here, any vhance you'll update this to the new version? You should start playing it again, like me after ~2y break.
-QVOYA- 30 May, 2019 @ 5:29pm 
SOMEONE PLEASE GET THIS RUNNING AGAIN ;-;
FOX-HOUND 31 Mar, 2019 @ 12:46pm 
@Damntry Thank you so much! I look forward to seeing how it'll run!
KoiKoi 31 Mar, 2019 @ 3:49am 
thank you.what a pity. It was a great mod.
Damntry  [author] 29 Mar, 2019 @ 9:26am 
@KoiKoi The mod is discontinued and doesnt work anymore, the explanation is at the top of the description.
I edited the mod description to make it more clear.
KoiKoi 29 Mar, 2019 @ 8:14am 
I forget this game for a long time.I played it new game few days ago,and this mod Drip Irrigation doesn't work! The water pipe disappeared and cannot be make.
So,how can I get that?
Thank you.
MadGenius54RUS 25 Jan, 2019 @ 7:45am 
(Bad eng, rus prefer)I do... something. And now i can build barrels and pipes without errors. But they are useless. Can u help me? I cant find logic @use@ pipes. Where code for water crops?
Damntry  [author] 5 Dec, 2018 @ 11:58am 
Got Internet back, finally. @FOX-HOUND Not anymore since I removed the workshop contents, but you can download the old mod from https://goo.gl/ezmQYN and add it manually.
FOX-HOUND 23 Nov, 2018 @ 1:37pm 
Probably a silly question on my part though hopefully not too silly. If you're still playing with the pre-vehical update, would this work?
Damntry  [author] 19 Nov, 2018 @ 1:46am 
Really? In my case they disappeared after I updated the mod to remove all functionality.
I'm in the process of moving to a new house so I won't be able to use the pc for a few days. I'll check it out as soon as I can.
JREALMZ 14 Nov, 2018 @ 12:55pm 
how do i eliminate the irrigation pipes? after i deleted the mod theyre still on my savegame :/
argiebarge 4 Nov, 2018 @ 1:59am 
thanks for your efforts anyway Damntry, was good while it was working
Damntry  [author] 1 Nov, 2018 @ 6:15am 
Well thats unfortunate. I tried to make it work but the changes needed are way more complex than I though. More info at the top of the description.
NeroCloud 31 Oct, 2018 @ 1:01pm 
LOL thats how updates good
Damntry  [author] 31 Oct, 2018 @ 12:32pm 
As soon as I said its ok, new update comes out and breaks the mod. Going to check whats wrong.
Damntry  [author] 30 Oct, 2018 @ 5:44am 
Yes its still working
NeroCloud 27 Oct, 2018 @ 9:26pm 
Does this mod still work just want to make sure
jester 19 Sep, 2018 @ 7:32pm 
Yeah sorry, I was stupid...I was on current IWBUMS.
Damntry  [author] 19 Sep, 2018 @ 10:56am 
@jester AFAIK nothing has changed and its working fine for me. Are you on the beta branch?
jester 18 Sep, 2018 @ 9:05pm 
Does not work anymore.
Righclick menu does not have any entry about the Irrigation Pipe which is in the inventory.
Dwarden 1 Sep, 2018 @ 12:06am 
the catch? i was just looking into errors appearing corner and log :)
then trying to figure it out how fix ;)
Damntry  [author] 31 Aug, 2018 @ 9:24pm 
RainCollectorBarrel.lua.bak is an unused file.
It seems that the mod creator initially modified the original barrel code from "RainCollectorBarrel.lua" to create the irrigation logic, instead of adding to the barrel logic in "WaterPipes_RainCollectorBarrel.lua" as he does currently.

Its basically a left over in case he needed it again.


gameTime:getTimeOfDay()
Good catch. How did you find this?

I ve tested but the init() function only seems to get called from the client, who ends the call on the first line. I dont get a hit from the server logs for some reason.
Im missing something for sure but I dont know how initializing works here.

What this bug does is to start the initial watering loop 1 hour earlier, no biggie. Probably not going to fix it since some day/year/century I d like to revamp the irrigation logic to sync water levels by tying it to the crop water absorption logic, instead of using game hours. Less realistic, but more flexible and reliable.
Dwarden 31 Aug, 2018 @ 5:33pm 
btw. any point to keep this file? :
\waterPipes_36\media\lua\server\BuildingObjects\RainCollectorBarrel.lua.bak
it seems the .40 has the file as vanilla now as MORainCollectorBarrel.lua
Dwarden 31 Aug, 2018 @ 12:26pm 
in file `WaterPipe.lua` the line #40 has typo

local sec = math.floor(gameTime:getTimeOfDay() * 3600);

it should be

local sec = math.floor(getGameTime():getTimeOfDay() * 3600);

then it works fine
Dwarden 31 Aug, 2018 @ 10:38am 
question, is `RainCollectorBarrel.lua` file missing or redundant ?
\waterPipes_36\media\lua\server\BuildingObjects\RainCollectorBarrel.lua.bak
as there seems to be only the .bak file
Damntry  [author] 24 Aug, 2018 @ 5:38pm 
I havent tried but I'd say that nop, it only works with crops
Neo-Kerozen 24 Aug, 2018 @ 8:20am 
Hello, does irrigation pipes also refill toilets ? Defecation mod users could find it most useful
Damntry  [author] 21 Jul, 2018 @ 3:23pm 
@Bitzer Yes both will work the same. I think the only difference is the water capacity of each one.
Phil Swift 21 Jul, 2018 @ 3:18pm 
Does it allow both barrels to be used, (level 4 carpentry rain collector)
Damntry  [author] 19 Jul, 2018 @ 5:19am 
@Arr Good question. Theoretically there should be no length limit but I dont know if the game engine allows it. The sea/river/lakes does not work as a source of water since it only searches for piped water and barrels. I ll update the mod description.

@Tropical Yeah I think I noticed that once or twice in my game, where it seemed to fill slower than usual, but this mod doesnt touch the way barrels refill from rain so Im not sure if there is some kind of game feature or bug.
Arr 17 Jul, 2018 @ 6:48pm 
Hey, really enjoy your mod so far. But I have a few questions: what is the maximum length of irrigation pipes lane could be for it's correct functioning (I want to place those straight from home to sea) and can a barrel be connected to the sea via pipes? Thanks!
Tropical (CRI) 16 Jul, 2018 @ 10:40pm 
@Damntry
Hey man, I'm not 100% sure, but I think the water barrels filling (%) bug still persevere. I have one barrel installed, rain has been plentiful, althogh, everytimes it rains for longer periods of hours the barrels collectors only fills up to like 40% Max 42% even overnight sleeps. Also, I know the fertilizing does not work 100% but I did pour some just to test things out. So, that could of been the issue that trigger the bug, but I will give a closer look to verify if that is the case. Thank you if you are seen this and if you are interested to look into it when confirmed.
Tropical (CRI) 16 Jul, 2018 @ 1:02pm 
@Damntry

Thank you :)
Damntry  [author] 16 Jul, 2018 @ 11:57am 
Unfortunately it doesnt work with wells
Tropical (CRI) 13 Jul, 2018 @ 8:26pm 
I'm just wondering if this mod works with wells also?
Eduardowar✪ 29 Jun, 2018 @ 5:37pm 
thank you very much
