Rain detector?

[Hellbrand]

So I'm trying to make a rain detector in this server but I cant figure out any blasted way to do it x.x if anyone has anything they can contribute please please please let me know

[Sheldor]

Forrestry rain collector to redstone waterproof pipe or pipe with a gate

[Pilchard123]

Because that's going to work so well when Forestry is gone, isn't it.

[Sheldor]

Just learn to mod, go into forrestry and delete sirsengirs stupidity.

[Pilchard123]

I know. But perhaps Hellbrand doesn't want to do that. Perhaps the server owner doesn't want to include Forestry any more. Perhaps they do, but can't rely on everyone else doing it, and so decided to not bother.

That said, a rain detector is the way I would have done it as well, had SirS not pulled Forestry.

[Sheldor]

Yes, we'll I'm already talking to people I know in the hope that I will be able to help make a forestry like mod to replace sirsengirs.

Detecting rain during the day should be possable.

Use some timers/switches synced to the minecraft daytime in an and gate detecting power from a solar panel. That way if it rains during the day, the solor panel will switch off and you will know it is raining.

[Hellbrand]

Solarpanels still work , just not as effeciently so they still give power in the rain
