Water Pressure
« on: January 08, 2009, 06:59:58 pm »
Just started this map after a few weeks of playing DF and ran into a little problem. I started on an ocean map with salt water and was trying to pump out some fresh water, but I didn't think of the water pressure. Any help?

Heres my map

That's quite the distance to pump it. Water pressure = Equbilirium of two connected spaces.
This means you'll need to make a water/pump tower as high as the place you want the water to get to
