Anchored hydro tray

[dvir001]

About the PR

• New hydro tray that cannot be moved or reconstructed, but it can be removed by hitting it.

To be used in ships and stations to make it impossible to steal or move them to other locations.

be civil in discussion please

I feel like this is targeted against kitchenfarms. This is incredibly petty imo and it could also affect others which are trying projects casually.

furthermore, why would anyone want trays that can be damaged by combat?

This is the same function as the normal ones, 100 health points.

The idea behind this added hydro is to add a new type of hydro tray that could be used to replace existing ones, this isn't a talk about if we should replace them right now or where we replace them.

The ideal will be on stations, and possibly on ships that come with hydro pre installed, the option to build hydro as normal isn't effected by this.

In the end of the day this is a better looking "dirt tray", with the normal icons, water storage and overall good stats.

it would actually be an interesting in-between tho maybe it should get fully resprited. its nice having the indicator lights and knowing what the plot needs, and dirt provides none of that visual feedback.

Added a new look, made by GentleJester.

Ideally I was hoping for a much more distinct sprite to make it look very clear it will function differently. I also hope to use these to more well balance most of the growing on frontier, and leave the base hydrotrays at vanilla and let them be movable/rewards/customizable variants. so ships would spawn with these kinds always, the trays would be extra boards purchased from vending machine or from scientists or salvaged from expeds/wrecks etc.

why not use the alt hydro sprites from tg and edit them a little bit

They have no sprites for the light indicators
