Farming works under water

Don’t know if this is a bug or not, but I’m pretty sure it’s not supposed to be able to do. But farms can be placed under water.

but yea, water has pretty much no meaning right now. it’ll mean more in the future, and at that point your farmer there should be drowning lol

Maybe we can have fish this way XD

LOGIC!
Yea, don’t ask. I live in Melbourne, Australia, Where it can be 30oC and hailing wile still sunny
So this is normal to me xD

Take away this smile !!!
Here in Belgium, it’s f*cking cloudy and rainy with 10°C …

Another thing came to my mind when seeing the picture !!!
What if the hearthlings can produce oysters, molds, … ?

Confirmed in release 472. Paging @Albert and @yshan, is this intentional?

Water doesn’t restrict anything at the moment (combat, farming, building, eating, sleeping, …) so this is more unimplemented than a bug.

Ähmmm this is not spongebob xD normally its not possible to make farms under water :wink:

perhaps when they have complete the water engine and add a fisher ^^ or the engineer can produce weir so that the farmer can cultivate something …

power to the rice fields :slight_smile: good to know you can farm water area’s. I’m seeing a whole bunch of city building options :slight_smile:

Placing a campfire is also possible underwater, and the Hearthlings will even lit it and sit around it. Not sure if writing letters is possible underwater, tho.

that is what i mean with complete the water engine :wink: at the moment its also possible to build bikini bottom :wink:

I can just image someone is going to build a complete town underwater, then one day load their game after it’s fixed, and all of a sudden, everyone is drowning.

I found this on another report:
http://discourse.stonehearth.net/t/farming-works-under-water/16238/9?u=relyss

Let’s wait until they improve the water system :slight_smile:

Edit: just merged both reports, they are the same.
