Water Tank//SEE DESCRIPTION

Description
When the new irrigation block was shown on stream, it became clear: the tiny built-in storage just wasn’t going to cut it. Farms need a steady water supply, and watching your ice reserves 24/7 isn’t fun gameplay.

This mod adds a dedicated Water Tank block so you can stockpile and manage water just like you do with hydrogen and oxygen.

Features

💧 Store massive amounts of water for your farms and bases

🛠️ Leaks when damaged — don’t let it burst!

⚖️ Water has weight → tanks get heavier as they fill (engineering challenge!)

🤯 WAAAAATAAAAAA!

Details

Appears in the same section as hydrogen and oxygen tanks

Works with conveyors and the new irrigation block

Fully survival-ready

If the farm plot isn't pulling water just enable and disable stockpile as needed

and for clarification, turn stockpile on/off on the farm plots, not the tank

MMasters Auto LCD 2 can show you water tank levels, its treated as a gas

Has anyone written a script or mod, or have any existing LCD status scripts or mods been updated to show capacity status for H20 in water tanks and irrigation systems? I have tried searching, but no luck.

just saying, when i have only this for the water with irrigation off, it does not even work"

I really love the idea. We needed a H20 tank. The artwork on Workshop item is fantastic. I would love to have as an LCD poster.:steamhappy::steamthumbsup:

if anyone who's better with blender wants to help out feel free to reach out. otherwise i'll continue practicing. end goal is to get a somewhat realistic round tank or a tank that somewhat matches the poster i used in the image. either way we'll get there.......eventually

Totally fair - and yeah 100% agree on not putting it behind a paywall/DLC

If I could do the models i'd offer but aye, appreciate its easier said than done.
Cool mod, gonna keep an eye on it for sure

thank you for keeping dlc out of it, i just saw a mod use the apex survival kit for no reason other than looks and that kinda makes me mad especially with no alternative.

Love the idea, and the artwork on the mod page

But the model is just a re-skin of vanilla hydro
I get it, not like I could do any better. And something is better than nothing. But if you ever update the model that would be awesome"

i do get that but i wanted to keep it as vanilla as possible. also i suck with blender but i am practicing on it.

"I personally think the industrial tank would look better as a water tank. If you could add that as an option or have a separate mod for that it would be great."

i didn't want to use a DLC and softlock the mod behind a paywall because remember DLC content needs to be restricted.

all in all yes i am practicing in blender for a new model
