Local Temperature Mechanic Does Not Apply To Farm Drying

Fixed

function self:_RefreshSoilMoisture(dt)
	local rain_rate = TheWorld.state.israining and TheWorld.state.precipitationrate or 0
	local world_wetness = TheWorld.state.wetness
	local world_temp = TheWorld.state.temperature

	for index, soilmoisture in pairs(_moisturegrid.grid) do
		if soilmoisture < world_wetness then
			-- the soil will never by dryer than the ground's wetness
			SetSoilMoisture(index, world_wetness)
		else
			-- if its raining, then add moisture based on how hard its raining, otherwise, the world temp may do some drying
			local world_rate = rain_rate > 0 and (rain_rate * SOIL_RAIN_MOD)
						or Remap(Clamp(world_temp, MIN_DRYING_TEMP, MAX_DRYING_TEMP), MIN_DRYING_TEMP, MAX_DRYING_TEMP, SOIL_MIN_TEMP_DRY_RATE, SOIL_MAX_TEMP_DRY_RATE)	--

Farms naturally get dried out a bit from the world temperature, though this is not affected by the new local temperature mechanic. If it were, one could use the new Ice Crystaleyezer to prevent drying of farm plots during Summer.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Place Crystaleyezer near wet farm plots in summer

2. They'll still dry out !
