Sprinklers don't appear to be working properly.  Before I place the sprinkler, the farm plots close by show has_water value is false.  When I place the sprinkler, the has_water value changes to true, but Water Source coordinates are 0,0,0 and the Water Block value is air Water instead of terrBedrock Water like the water pipes value.  I can only place seeds right next to the water pipe, but I can do that without a sprinkler, so the sprinkler isn't doing anything.

Seems fine to me. You do have it attached to a water pipe that is connected to water, right?

Ok, based on your hotbar I think I see the problem.  How did you make the straight pipe and the valve?  I only have the "T" metal pipe in my crafting menus.  I ran T metal water pipes from bedrock to the farm plots and then put the sprinkler right on the T pipe.  It looks like maybe it goes water pipe>valve>sprinkler?  I don't see a way to craft the straight pipe or the valve, they aren't in my crafting menus.

Here is what my setup looks like and what my crafting menu options are.

If you see the white icons in the upper left corner, it means that the block has a shape menu associated with it.  Select them then hold R down to bring it up (like the wooden frames).  You should see more options with the T Pipe block now.

 
Ok, but if it's just a shape difference then shouldn't my setup work?  Are there functional differences with the different shapes?

 
Ok, I made it look like yours.  Still doesn't work.  :(

It seems to not think it has a water source, or else that sprinkler would be active and moving. Notice how in my pic it has particles around it, that means it is working. I didn't test with the bedrock connection though, so maybe that's where the problem is.

EDIT: Did a quick test and bedrock seems to work fine: image.png

And this is what I see when looking at the pipes: image.png

I still say these would be great to help put out raging fires from a certain someone's "For the love of all that's holy, don't light that match in here!!" mod

Yeah, the pipes and sprinkler all show the same values you have, other than the water source coordinates are different. The only thing different that I can see from your testing and my experience is that I'm on top of a building and you are at ground level.  Not sure if that would matter for some reason.

Ok, tried it at ground level off a pond water source.  Still doesn't work.

So, just to be clear that I'm not missing a step, all I need to do is lay pipe from the water source, end with a T, place sprinkler on T, place farm plots, and finally plant seed, right?

Edit: Does biome have anything to do with it?  The entire map is wasteland biome, FYI.

Can you just confirm if this is in SP or on a dedicated server?

 
I'm guessing dedicated server because I can't see the green tinged 'fog' in the background even though this is the Wasteland Biome.

 
Dedicated server and affecting all server players, not just me.
Yeah, arramus repro'd the issue on a dedi as well. I passed it on to sphereii to see what he can do with it.

Also, do the valve blocks for the pipes give you any range increase either? Wondering if they are broke on dedis as well.

I'm not sure how to use a valve for range.  Intuitively, a valve just turns flow on or off so I don't know how to use a valve for range.  Do I just place the valve on the end of a T pipe and then place the sprinkler on top?

 
I just used them as a smaller range sprinkler as there weren't better options. As long as they are connected to pipes that run to water they should work. I think they have a range of 2, so in between just a water block and the sprinkler. You don't need a sprinkler with them, they extend the range on their own.

I tried a valve and it didn't change anything.  Could still only plant right next to the pipe.

 
Ya, this all checks out as a dedicated server issue and something in the netcoding which isn't quite allowing things to work as intended. The same applies for certain types of Quests as well. SP is just fine, but dedi servers are not working out. I'm just using the 8 plots surrounding 1 water block for now as it's working out satisfactorily. In fact, after a few harvests, the water level/volume is not depleting and may never. If so, a trade off for not having full access to the farming features.

 
Try grabbing SCore v21.1.97.930 from this morning and try that out.
It's a beautiful thing.  The valve works too.

Edit:  I still don't see the spray animation and the water source coordinates are all still 0,0,0 but I was able to plant the crops.  I guess we'll see if they actually grow.
