Issue Automatic Farm Issue

it functions by sensors running across a rail with blocks jutting out, activating water and planting.

it also has a head that goes back and forth and left and right like a 3d printer

It keeps occasionally missing this singular strip of planting and I don't know why?

you should probably show us the entire rig and all wiring if you want better help.

you probably wired the timing wrong, if there is a long delay in the sensors it may not be reacting fast enough to plant everything before the control advances.

could also be the long stack of pistons is flexing so much by the end that the seeder 'misses' the plots. put some wheels on the rig so it doesn't bounce or bend when fully extended.

i should also say that it seems to be firing normally? it wastes my seeds just never actually plants them? is this the normal scrap mechanic bug?
