It's not hard to setup a cistern that has level 7 water, no.  But how do you keep it at level 3 or level 4?

Why don't you create a cistern with a number of tiles dividable by 7, say 21. Then have a bridge/gate partition it into one reservoir of 3/7*21=9 tiles and fill them up completely. Then, stop the inlet, open the partitioning bridge/gate, and it should even out to exactly 3/7 in the whole reservoir.

(edit: and for even easier one time use in an open environment, just channel out a 9-tile pool, fill it up by connecting it to the river with a floodgate at the edge, close the floodgate, and expand the pool to 21 tiles....

Aha yeah I knew there had to be a good way of doing it perfectly.    Thanks!
