Hi there! I often get this red error pop up when I use the pumps (I've only tested with reverse-moisture and fertilizer pumps, unsure if the others do it as well). I'm not noticing any gameplay problems, but I figured I'd share the logs just in case :) Thanks for the awesome mod!

Do these mods work together? Or would they in the right load order? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1164753788

Hi, if the shallow water pump is used in a piece of land surrounded by the ocean, will it consider the water near the pump and convert the tile correctly to shallow ocean water or it's just going to convert it to shallow water which will introduce non-seamless texture?

Does the fertilizer pump work on any terrain, or do you need to convert it first to something else?

cross mod compatibility with dubs hygiene for fertilizer would honestly be fantastic

*face palm*
apologies, completely forgot this mod worked that way

@Noisy Koi, That's frustrating! Sorry to hear that. Are you using any mods that change the architect menu? Pumps are all found in a dropdown as one entry in the Misc tab. You could try unsubscribing and resubscribing. Otherwise I'd also suggest you try to reproduce your issue in a new save, to verify it is not a problem with that particular save.

Idk what's up but the pumps aren't showing up in the architect menu, I researched the tech but I can't find any of the pumps anywhere in the architect menu

@Shanix No problem B) Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for the update! It's a lot of fun terraforming my colonies :)

@kongkim 1.5 update is planned to release soon

Will you update it to 1.5? :)

I found that the pumps do not work on the glacier. After all, there is not earth or stone, but ice, will the ability to terraform ice be added?

If you ever get around to 1.4, having the ability to equally restore terrain (Although I'm sure terrain data isn't saved) back to Granite, limestone, etc, would be equally nice.

Gotta say as compared to other terraforming mods this is definitely one of my favorites.

just asking if it just me or not, but reverse moisture pump self destructs? it can't be placed in water/destroys itself when it creates water?

Are there anyway to turn sand into soil with this mod?

Thats what i wnated, nice nice. Thaznkyou for the work.

@bearhiderug, there are additional "tiers" of pump research after the vanilla one.

@Victor, That's awesome!

Are these requireing research to unlock? after the normal tech?

Hi, I made a mod that allows editing the time they take to finish: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2956544660

Can we make Table-Raiser Moisture Pump work on shallow flowing water? I wanted to make the existing river my moat, not fill it up and create a whole new river.
Also want to have a way to set the time.
Please, look forward to your perfect work.

Can we get something that can turn sand into soil?I am trying a dessert terraforming run but I can seem to terraform with your mod. Using garden tools is too much workforce Also as @SetArk <Nyanverick 07> said a settings tab would be awesome

Haven't tested it yet! Wanted to know, does the mod come with a settings tab so we can change the time it takes for the terraforming to be done?
If not, could it be added?

On the subject of a "pumps" tab, perhaps as an option like materials switching, and then put the master in the utilities section.

@Guiep that's a good idea, I think I'll give that a shot

@Guiep Thanks! When I update this mod to 1.4 I'll be poking around the code and will make some of the recommended changes. So to clarify, you'd like to see a pump exclusively for creating marshy terrain?

And one other question aimed toward you and anyone else who reads this: would a dedicated "Pumps" tab contribute too much toward UI clutter? I'd rather not crowd the "Misc." tab but I'd like to gauge the community's sentiment on it.

balanced terra forming moment?

hello, continue making mods of this or greater quality, thank you

This is already rather handy, adding the ability to make/remove geothermal vents would easily turn this into a must-have. (If you can ever find the time for it.)

Oh it's definitely a big ask lol.

Good luck on your finals!

@Vivi Sinz Those are great ideas! My time isn't an infinite resource unfortunately, which is why I tried to keep the scope of this mod to just expanding moisture pumps. I like the chemfuel/helixien gas well idea particularly, although that would be better suited for the ground-penetrating scanner imo.

@Forekast Lol! That's a fantastic idea for a rework of moisture pumps. Unfortunately a pretty big overhaul... difficult but doable. Maybe keep an eye out this summer? Hitting finals week rn :< Glad you like it!

Neat idea!

My first thought to reduce the amount of distinct buildables, is to have a dropdown of terrain types that lets you set the goal terrain for the area, which would dictate power consumption and fuel-requirement, if any, depending on how many "steps" apart the goal terrain is from the initial terrain. (I think the fertile fields/terraforming mod worked like that). Build cost can just use the more expensive variant, requiring advanced components.

And the the other thought would be a way to increase the speed of terraforming, by allowing the player to increase power consumption. Maybe a similar system to how cooler temperature is set, but instead allow increased or decreased power draw, which would then affect the speed of the device. (I admit, I'm not sure how difficult this would be to implement)

That would be a great mod. Not really any geyser mods. A geyser for vfe deep chem and helixian gas would be great. Maybe for the new luciferium drug farming to.

Maybe one that lures infestations to it?

I could pour out ideas. I just need to know what you're interested in.

@Vivi Sinz Thanks! I only have one idea right now - creating/filling geothermal vents. Thoughts?

10/10 mod please keep expanding this very unique mod all these are great.
