Random thought and underground rivers
« on: November 20, 2009, 05:15:00 pm »
Anyone ever try to plug an underground river?  Since they tend to start with a water fall from Nowhere I was wondering what would happen if you redirect one with flood gates long enough to floor in the outbound hole and then close the flood gate. 
I may have to try it in the name of Dwience.

It just fills itself up and then stops, like any source of water. The chasm's there to let it drain / simulate flow. I tend to plug most of my UGs with caveins and kill the riverlings on the dry riverbed, then direct the controlled (and non-permanently FPS-draning) river to wherever I like.
