About Water Wheel Bot
Water Wheel Bot lets players hire an NPC worker that physically mounts their water wheel and turns it for them, generating electricity on autopilot. Choose between Walk and Run modes to balance power output vs. stamina drain, pick a rental duration, and pay with your server's economy. The worker stands beside the wheel as an interactive NPC, talk to them to hire, hit the wheel with a hammer to check status, or feed them food to keep their stamina up.

How It Works
- Place a Water Wheel and connect it to your electrical system
- Hit it with a Hammer to open the hire menu (you'll need the permission waterwheelbot.use to access this UI)
- Select a mode (Walk or Run) and a rental duration
- Confirm the hire : the NPC mounts the wheel and starts generating power
- Monitor status via the proximity HUD or full management panel
- Feed the worker food to keep stamina up and maintain power output
- Dismiss early for a pro-rated refund, or let the shift expire naturally
Main Features
- NPC Worker System : A fully clothed NPC spawns beside the water wheel, mounts it when hired, and physically operates it for the rental duration
- Walk & Run Modes : Walk mode produces less power but drains stamina slowly; Run mode produces full power at higher stamina cost and rental price
- Configurable Rental Durations : Default options from 30 minutes to 24 hours, fully customizable with per-tier pricing
- Stamina System : Workers lose stamina over time. Below the low threshold, power output scales down. At zero stamina, power stops completely
- Feed Your Worker : Use food from your inventory to restore stamina. Each food item has a configurable restore value (apples, cooked meat, chocolate, canned food, etc.)
- Proximity HUD : A compact animated status bar appears when you're near an active water wheel, showing time remaining, stamina, and power output
- Full Status Panel : Detailed management UI with mode toggle, feed button, dismiss button, and live power/stamina/time bars
- Multiple Interaction Methods:
- Talk to the NPC to hire or check status
- Hit the water wheel with a hammer
- Try to mount an occupied wheel
- Animated UI : Smooth slide-in/fade animations
- Economy Integration : Supports Scrap, Economics, ServerRewards, IQEconomic, ShoppyStock, and BankSystem
- Pro-Rated Refunds : Dismiss a worker early and receive a partial refund based on remaining time (configurable refund rate)
- Persist Across Restarts : Active bots, stamina, mode, and expiration all saved and restored on server restart
- Customizable Bot Appearance : Configure clothing items and skins for the worker NPC
- Fully Configurable UI Colors : 15+ color settings for complete theme control
