Water Me!

by whosalbercik

Water Me! makes farmland and crops depend on water: players must water plants by hand, and a source placed nearby only helps for a while.

FabricClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.4

What it does

Crops and farmland lose moisture over time, so the player has to return with a water bucket to keep plants alive. Each use of a water bucket adds one unit of moisture, and a bucket with sixteen uses empties once they are gone, leaving an empty bucket in the inventory. Water placed nearby keeps plants hydrated for a shorter span than a player watering by hand would.

The moisture decrease rate is set in the config, and the default makes it slower than the base rate. A plant that dies loses one point of maximum moisture, which takes around an hour of play to pass. A panel in the top right corner shows information about the crop or farmland being looked at, and it can be hidden with a key press. The mod runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it, and it is published for Fabric only, for 1.21.4 with the 1.0.0.2 build from 2025-02-20, under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Hand watering

    Each water bucket use adds one moisture unit to the crop or farmland being watered.

  2. Bucket depletion

    A water bucket with sixteen uses becomes an empty bucket once every use is spent.

  3. Moisture decay

    Moisture drains over time, and a dying plant lowers the maximum moisture by one point.

  4. Crop information panel

    A panel in the top right shows moisture and details for the crop or farmland under the crosshair, and it can be hidden.

Questions

Does Water Me! need to be installed on the server?

Yes. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod.

How often do crops need watering?

Moisture decays over time, and the decrease rate is set in the config, with a slower default. Around an hour passes before a plant loses one point of maximum moisture.

Does a water source nearby replace watering?

No. A source placed nearby keeps plants hydrated for a shorter time than hand watering does, so the player still has to return with a bucket.
