Mod «[B42] Water Pipes» for Project Zomboid

This mod introduces a comprehensive plumbing system for Project Zomboid Build 42, allowing players to install pumps, run pipelines, and distribute water from rivers, lakes, or wells into buildings and barrels. The system supports singleplayer and multiplayer environments.

• Pump water from lakes, rivers, or wells
• Supply entire buildings with running water
• Automatically fill rain barrels
• Build sprinklers to irrigate crops in an 8-tile radius
• Install valves and flow meters for full control
• Unlimited pipe length with auto-connecting shapes

Quick Start:

• Build a pump next to a water tile or well, ensure it has electricity, and turn it on
• Lay pipes from the pump to a building or barrel
• Add sprinklers for crops, valves for control, and flow meters for monitoring
• Expand with forks, crossroads, or multiple pumps for large networks

Advanced Mechanics:

• Pumps: Must be placed next to water tiles (tainted) or wells (fresh). Require electricity and degrade over time; repair to restore output. Damaged pumps may catch fire. Charcoal filters tainted water into fresh water. Remove with a sledgehammer.
• Pipes: Auto-connect to neighbors. Forking splits flow; merging increases it. To connect different floors, build the upper floor pipe first. Connect to original game buildings or barrels by placing a pipe adjacent to them. Pipes block vehicle movement. Remove with a sledgehammer.
• Flow Meters: Install on existing pipes and right-click to check water flow.
• Valves: Install on existing pipes and right-click to open or close. Closed sections conserve water pressure for open routes.
• Sprinklers: Automatically water crops but do not affect player characters (e.g., wet clothing).

Uninstallation Warning: Removing the mod directly will break the save file due to engine limitations regarding removed build entity scripts. To safely remove the mod, use the included «WaterpipesRemoved» mod to maintain save compatibility.
