Water Pit
« on: November 07, 2009, 10:47:23 pm »

So I dug out this 5*5*4 pit to be filled with water.
My question is, will it somehow end up with fish even though it's filled using pumps?

It will have vermin fish and turtles, most likely, because they spawn in almost all water features in almost any climate. Big fish like Carp, however, will not spawn.

That's what I wanted.
It would be nice to have a few skeletal sea monsters in the water though.
Keep the fishermen from getting too careless.
And for good prisoner termination.

Depending on your map features, that can be arranged, you'd have to do it yourself, though.

If possible (I have no experience with skellie critters): catch 'em, stick the cages in the pool, and rig them up to a lever. That way, you can pop the cages on a whim later.
