Since I started using Satyr, have had problems with a single NPC Farmer missing some of the items needing water. Consequently, I finally enabled three NPCs -- one for each platform -- to hopefully water the entirety of the farm. The result, after roughly an hour, was that three or four of my ten trees were missed, and two or three of my fields. The rest of the items in question were visited multiple times by each of the NPC Farmers.

This cannot be, normal..? What can be done?

Any help, appreciated... thanks ;)

The way the NPC farmers work is that they visit things randomly. The best way to get them working if you have a lot of items is to change the setting in the config notecard for the radius. If you change that and then use the 'Fence' button you can see the approximate area each one will cover and by playing around with that hopefully you can keep them in separate areas. That sais, the NPC farmer was only really designed to work on a small farm system so it can take a bit of trial and error to get them working well!

We have a huge farm and the way I fixed this was to have our two NPC farmers each water only specific items. This can be edited in the config file in the rezzer. We have one farmer that waters small fields, vines marsh field etc, and the other only water trees, square fields and so on. Giving each npc its own "assignments" works well :)
