Allows for automation of planting Farm Plots, by automatically Planting any seeds that are loosely dropped on top of an inactive Farm Plot, such as by a Connector set to 'Throw Out', or this mod's new "Drop [single] Item" action. Combined with vanilla Collectors, this allows for fully automated farming.

Continuation of Planting Automation Mod without API limitations prior to update 1.208

Tips:

If Farm Plot is already growing something, the seed will be left floating above the Farm Plot until it can be planted, or it despawns. I suggest either having a Button that triggers your planter bot, so you can watch your cool contraption working, OR run your Collector (harvester) bot after seeding to pickup any loose seeds before they despawn.

- Works with Vertical & Inset Farm Plot and Flat & Cube Farm Plot Mods, likely any other custom models, if not, check the detection area with "!padebug" chat command and please report any incompatibility, either as a comment bellow, or as an issue on Github
