The physics aren't that bad. What a lot of people don't seem to understand is that the water has an extreme amount of momentum. The water pushing up over his obstacles, even the curved ones, is realistic. The water behind it is still pushing forward. Trying to deflect the wave doesn't work because all of the water not in contact with the wall is still trying to move forward, leaving the deflecting water nowhere to go but up again.

I once helped some friends making a sand castle and realized we'd started at low tide where it'd go under water so spent the next several hours with a shovel making a 3 ring 9 point star that got roughly 10 meters across and 1 meter peak to trough. The castle was eventually taken but it lasted about 2 hours past when the tide would have taken it, which i thought was pretty good, so I thought you might like to have a go
@maayu81082 жыл бұрын
I'm pretty sure there's no friction in this game's engine, that's why water doesn't slow down when it moves through flat land. The 45° wall actually should work better then just a straight one, but there's no friction so water slow down because it transfers kinetic energy into potential energy, but the overall energy in the whole wave is still the same, so when water finally is able to get through the wall it changes the potential energy into kinetic. Of course some of the water isn't able to get through, because it's kinetic energy is too small. It's probably water which is behind the extremum of the wave because there's less water giving it kickback energy (it's not pushed by anything) that's why only half of the water get's through when the wall is the size of the wave. Normally some of the energy would go into soil, packing it tighter, heating it, even into the sound the crashes make etc. and some water would sap into it earth, so the waves wight would get smaller and smaller, so overall energy in the wave system would decrease and another systems would gain same amount of energy.

I remember watching a video demonstration wave reduction and pure vertical wall is one of the worst options due to the wave crashing, going up, and the forward momentum carrying a lot of spillage over top the wall. The 45 was better due to the under wave crashing earlier and lowering the momentum of the total wave. The best, as you mentioned, was the c wall. However I’d like to have seen a Dong shaped retaining wall… And I can only trust one man for the job. You up for it?
@NFSHeld2 жыл бұрын
In this game, the counter-physically-intuitive method that is a wall straight up is the best solution, because water in this game only has 2 properties: height over ground and speed over ground. Water goes from higher to lower, speeding up, and slow water next to fast water tend to level their speed. But "friction" with riverbeds etc. is not really a thing as you can see at 2:14 - the water at the riverbanks should be slower but it really isn't or if any then just barely at all. Therefore, the best way to deflect a wave is a steep wall because that will decelerate the most and introduce a backwards current.

From the way it works, it would probably be best to just make a series of tall walls. Like, if you noticed how the Tsunami was reduced in height by half in the second wall (Which I think you used as your height limit), then if you just added a second wall it would probably absorb the rest. And since stress isn't an issue, there's no reason that each wall can't be incredibly thin.

Presumably heated air is vented/expelled up through the column within which there is a series of propeller blades/turbine generators that convert the mechanical energy into electric current through rotor windings.

My first city in CS was devastated by a flood because I didn't know that disaster response units didn't repair roads and let the city fall into bankruptcy. After that, I was conscious about floods and tried to come up with ideas to deter them. It takes a lot of soil but landscaping is the way to go to protect even against the biggest of floods. What worked for me best was to build a large rampart in the middle with guiding walls made of dirt spaced on either side of the advanced rampart. The walls would form a channel behind the initial block and the floor was depressed. It was meant to make a lake of sorts that could drain over time. Depending on the geography, I may have needed some more canals. However, the landscaped diversions into a lake or reservoir worked very well for anything behind the set up. I liked to think that citizens would pay top dollar to be in the city that is the most secure against floods while also being an attraction to people for hiking and camping when the reservoir was dry. People may even want to come see the mega-flood of the century fill up the area. Definitely a unique feature to a city. Barrier islands are also pretty good at stopping smaller floods.
