Water on Rising Drawbridge
« on: October 03, 2010, 04:38:16 am »

I've heard that falling drawbridges will atom-smash water in the current version.  What happens if the drawbridge raises while water is on top of it?  Does it scatter the water the same way it scatters objects?  I'm toying with building an automatic drain using a pressure plate.

Water which is on the tiles of the drawbridge that turn into a wall will be atom-smashed.  Water on the rest of the bridge will not be atom-smashed or scattered.

I would imagine it would fall as if it were a retracting bridge.
