Summary0002912: Underground farms unplantable if they are made wet after being exposed to light
DescriptionI'm not sure if this is a bug or intended behaviour (though it seems a bit strange if it is intended), but when I dig a farm underground where I want to plant overground crops. I have to make sure that the farm is wet and muddied before channeling out the roof of the farm.
If i channel out the roof of the farm, and then put water, then i keep getting a message saying there is no mud while trying to place the farm plot. even though examining the ground there shows mud. the same water flowing into an area that is not channeled above (ie is dark and inside rather than light outside) is farmable.
Steps To ReproduceChannel a small plot into the ground, designate it as a pit or move water into it in some way. Now try and build a farm, you will not be able to.

but if instead you dig 1-z level below ground, and clear a space. Then irrigate it (either through an underground river or by digging a small (1x1) channel on top and to the side and designate it as a pond. Now build the farm (you must build the farm before the next step)
Now channel out the roof of the farm. The farm works fine as an overground farm.
If you channel out the roof before then you cannot place the farm.

This would be lumped with the general problems going on with farming and mud. Don't think its a duplicate of anything though.

Wait, it's preventing you from actually placing the farm plot at all?
I've placed aboveground farm plots in completely mud-free areas, and while they do display the "no mud" warning, the game still lets me place them and subsequently plant seeds on them.
