Mod Suggestion
To continue with this current mod and go work hand in hand with the Poop Collection automaticly adding poop to Compost Bins I would like to suggest adding in a few new items to this current mod.

Egg and Poop Collector - This machine already does the first part of the job by collecting/storing and placing poop into the Compost Bin.

Thatcher - This machine would have to be near a Compost Bin and would still have to be filled with Thatch by a player. It will take Thatch placed in it and add it to the Compost Bin nearby.

Silo - This object will need to be near the Compost Bin also and it will remove fertilizer from the Compost Bin and store it within the Silo itself.

With the addition of these two items the process started with the Poop Collector will be completed.

Thank you. I'll install the new update and remove the other guy's mod. I saw your Dragon Mod but I haven't checked it out yet. I'll look at it later today.

You do awesome work and short of the Dragon Mod my server runs all of your mods!

One problem, the Silo keeps turning off after about 30 seconds. I tried putting thatch in it and turning it on but it turns off again after about 30 seconds. I also tried putting a couple bags of fertilizer in it and turning it back on. It still shut off after about 30 seconds.

I just placed the incubator from this mod and it shuts off after about 30 seconds also. I did notice that it still incubates any eggs nearby though. Not sure if the Silo still collects fertilizer after it shuts off.

it turns off if it is out of range from a working collector

Sorry i realized it was a logic mistake i made haha. You were right, i have found a way to fix the auto shut off problem already, will upload the new patch now.

Now will correctly enforce the check that can only power the incubator and silo if there is a collector within CollectDistance range. Collector required range to any electric junction box has also been doubled.

Anyway you could add an option to turn off poop or egg collection, so it could do one or the other. Like say, I didn't want it to pick up any poop. Nevermind, I just read that you can change the max stacks.

1) My Thach and Fert collectors are still becoming unown every time I log off and or server restarts. I have picked up and put down both the Silos and the Egg/Poop collectors (no I didn't reconstruct them as picking them up and putting them down does the same thing

2) Please, Please, Please make it so either it doesn't stack poop in the egg collector OR make it a server side option to make it so that it Stacks or doesn't stack poop. I am still seeing stacks of 5 slots of 50 stack poop in my bins. I feel that it is wasting poop.

3) Could you also please add an option to the Egg/Poop collectors to do either Eggs or Poop or Poop and Eggs. That way we can dived up what is being collected where.

I noticed today that the Silo was powered down and I couldn't do anything to it. But I also noticed that when it is that way all I have to do is log out, log back in, and that fixes it. That leads me to believe that it is a loading issue for the Silo and not a problem with the mod.

I'd like to see the option to set a Collector to pick up Poop or Eggs but that should be an option when you hold E. If it is placed as an option in the ini files then it will effect all Collectors not just yours.

I know but I am the server admin so...

Also I found to get around the issue I've been having i have to shut off the thatch silos before I log out otherwise they become unowned and unpowered and logging out and back in doesn't fix it for me, tried that.

Curious as to being a server admin matters

Built it normally as I can't get cheat spawns to work with this mod anyway.
