Question about Flow
« on: February 21, 2011, 04:35:36 am »

I have an underground canal with flow, the water is constantly at 7/7. If I drop water on top of it will it be drainen off the mpa like the rest of the water or will it flow to the sides because the water is 7/7?
This is how it looks like
.=open space or floow
|=wall
~=7/7 flowing water
Code: [Select]
.....

On both sides of the canal are fortifications

It will overflow.

Well, I let the water fall into a canal which leads into the flowing canal (so it was full with water too). At first the water fell on top of the water in the canal and didn't flow away (there were wall around it so it didn't overflow) but after a few seconds it started to drain away.

Here is (horizontal) view of it:
|=wall
.=nothing
~=water 7/7
%=flowing water 7/7

Code: [Select]
Water falls from here

No I just hope the fortress won't die because of the tantrum spiral that is probably gonna follow operation ''FPS Improvements''
