Behaviour of falling liquids
« on: July 16, 2012, 10:54:58 am »
Just a short question: When water is above a water-impassable building (such as a door or floodgate), will it fall down or remain on the upper level, even though that level has no floor? Or will the water do something buggy and fall anyway?

I'm going to do the smart thing here and disengage. This isn't a hill I paticularly care to die on.

It stays up there. Somebody recently made a kobold trap based on this behavior.

I wonder if the game has become odd.

That is good news... better use than you think, probably.
Could you point me to that thread?

I'm guessing the thread he's referring to is this one.
