Additional Information

As stated in hydrostation.h:
if (resName == "MarsSoil" || resName == "MoonSoil")
so either MarsSoil or MoonSoil can be used to fill the hydroponic.

When a barrel with water was added the ammount in the barrel decreased by one.
But no moonsoil was removed from the resource barrel.
Also no dirt rised in the hydrostation.

I'd say the bug is that it works with martian soil, without any additions. It's sterile, nothing would grow in it. I suppose it's a placeholder for now and subject to change.

Yes but as far as i understand the code it does not divide between mars soil or moon soil.
If (on mars) I add those barrel filled with mars soil to the hydroponic the soil is rising inside the hydroponic.
On the moon I did the same (with moon soil) and nothing happened.
