Auto Farmer NPC

Auto Farmer NPC

Tired of replanting every single seed by hand? Let a farmer do it!

Craft the Farmer Station (3x1) at the Automation Table and put a Caveling Gardener figurine into the figurine slot. A farmer appears, plants your seeds, harvests ripe plants and puts the crops into the station. Take the figurine out and he's gone. The figurine is not used up.

Recipe
Automation Table: 5 Scarlet Bar, 10 Iron, 20 Wood. Also available in the creative menu.

Station window
- 1 figurine slot (max 1)
- 10 seed slots (seeds only)
- 20 harvest slots
- Shift-click and robot arms work

What the farmer does
- plants seeds row by row in a snake pattern in a 10x10 field directly in front of the station
- only plants where you could plant that seed yourself (normal ground rules, for example Carrock only on stone)
- cycles through the seed slots
- harvests ripe plants and puts the crops into the station
- seeds come back like when you harvest yourself, no bonuses, and go back into the seed slots
- 3% chance for a rare variant when planting, same as the Robot Farm Arm
- when there is nothing to do he walks back to the station and waits in front of the chair

Good to know
- The farmer does not water. Use sprinklers, the soil has to be tilled.
- Rotate the station with R. The field is always in front of it, an arrow shows the direction while placing.
- The work area is shown with a green border and a scan animation.
- Harvested crops are shown in the trough of the station.
- The farmer is a Caveling Gardener with a light green outline. He can't be attacked and doesn't attack.
- Tested in multiplayer yet.

No dependencies. Just install it and farm.
