How does the AWG work? I'm playing moon so I have to go at water production this way.

I've got it built inside my base, no water's being produced even though atmospheric vapour is high 90s

Yeah, that is one reason the moon is more a showcase than playable. Only mars is gameplay playable. AWG doesn't work.

Added info to OP that only 15% of the content is in. Still a lot of content but things like the moon should be locked and there are some bugs with humidity, and does look like some mods do actually work (vegetable garden actually works by default, but not 100% of it).

Is there a particular reason this isn't updated on the Workshop?
I also enjoyed this back in the Alpha days (17, iirc), so PTW.

Hm, probably too unfinished to be put up tbh and he isnt able to update it until he gets all the parts that go into the mod up to date. A mod wouldnt survive (or looked too kindly upon anyway) being uploaded without even half the features/content in and then left unintended for coming on 2 years, even if the dev is kinda working on it even if not directly.

Like...the moon shouldnt be playable, its a test demo. I think thats one of the bigger ones, plus humidity and one mechanic of water being flat out broken.

Still despite that, if it was updated more, then I'd be a lot more confused why it isnt more available to the "public". Its still an amazing mod. But as it is, seems more like he does it in his spare time as a hobby tbh. Wouldnt be surprised if it goes into abandoned status sadly, most things end up that way in this state.

I believe Dubs is presently working on the sub-mods (Hygeine, skylights, etc.) and getting them into as good a position as he can before continuing on MarsX, so I'd be unsurprised if he's waiting to get back to it before going for a Steam release.

yeah pretty much this. I do really hope he doesn't abandon it, I'm just cynical :P But the mod is amazing as it is, but super looking forward to the eventual update
