[@RealCivilEngineerGaming]

So just for those wondering about the behind the scenes of the different timeline, our original plan was to have what was shown in this video but add it into the gameplay during the editing process. However the original timeline gameplay was so edge of the seat we felt this would ruin the flow as it would look like I restarted a save file and there would be no excitement. Hence it ended up here! ps I'm finally nearly better now, two weeks of illness sucked!!

[@Ian_Trinidad13]

nice idea of showing which human civilization brought us the poo water. it was matts poo water experiments in city skilines... it all makes sense now. Hope you get back to full play with paddy power soon. I really feel with you, could still sleep 2/3 of the day after weeks of feeling like crap. Thanks for your entertainment and diversion during that time. Like the idea with the paddy fields

[@shawnswenson1413]

So you didn't reload a saved file? That's what I assumed based on the montage and dead beavers everywhere. For future reference, as with what happened, it appears you could have a few pods paused at 1 tick remaining, and they would be cryo-beavs to prevent future full depopulation.

Okay so on that damn that's after the spinning wheels your Power Wheels, instead of putting dams put floodgates, so during wet seasons you can just drop a floodgates all the way and you'll have a full water movement right And when it's the drought you just raise the floodgate to hold water

[@fintux]

The badwater discharge is actually useful for keeping the badwater running all the time, as it can be used for energy production. I think it works like that only in this faction (the other one has wind power for droughts).

[@SilverLicas17]

To commemorate all the beavers that died in the bad water disaster you can leave the district up. It was actually called "you're going to Okay", so "Okay" can be the true name of the district! It could later become a working district where you have factories and you can harvest the power from the bad water! And then every beaver will want to go to Okay!

[@SebRingbauer]

[@aredub1847]

oh he cheats too? figures.

[@amelias8894]

Pady was soo excited for his field though

[@AJigsawnHalo]

At 19:25 I think that’s caused by the way the game runs the water simulation. This is just based on my observations while playing this game but I think whenever moving water encounters a wall, it gets reflected back. And if the walls are close enough, they amplify and create an even bigger wave which essentially becomes occasional surges. Pretty annoying that it always floods the riverbanks whenever a drought finishes and water rushes back in towards your dams.

[@joewaun894]

I learned the hard way. You are fat better off doing as little as possible with the water. My next play through im going to use two different water sources one for power and one for farming. Trying to control the water just causes floods and chaos

[@lXlDarKSuoLlXl]

​@@joewaun894that's one way to do it, however, I'm way too stubborn for my own good, so I terraformed the entire river to experiment on ways to control the water from flowing backwards (that's what causes the tides). This happens when you restrict a large volume of water, and then drop it on a shallow river that's damed, the water goes at high speed to the dam, and if the dam doesn't allows immediate flow, part of it will slam with the wall and flow backwards. If you switch dams with floodgates and lower it when the draughts end, the flow will continue forward, then you slowly rise the gates and the surges will be minimal, the second way is to deepen the river, and the last third way is to create a super deep buffer zone on the back of the river so that surging tide has a place to "fall" to. The tide is usually half a block tall, so a 2 or 3 block deep river will never flood because of that.

[@lXlDarKSuoLlXl]

​@@joewaun894ah, I think I wasn't clear enough with the third one, by buffer I mean to dig a hole in the side of your river and block the access with a levee or a floodgates, that way when the water surges to your settlement it'd try to go to the lowest point, that being your ditch, bonus points if you use it as a pool for showers or something 😂

[@Raytenecks]

Poor Truss-tea. Forever destined to be a Tree instead. Oh well.

[@nathanc6443]

Bad water discharge is infinite power i think because it says maintains bad water flow during droughts so its an insane electricity fuel source

[@OriginalPiMan]

You're right, it can be effectively used that way. Just build a lot of large power wheels along a narrow canal for the bad water to push.

[@nathanc6443]

Yea so matt was on to something with the placing his industry there but didnt have the bad water discharge so it would have worked​@OriginalPiMan

[@OriginalPiMan]

@@nathanc6443 Yes and no. Yes, the industry would have kept working. But that was also a lot of prime agricultural land he would have been giving up.

[@nathanc6443]

​@OriginalPiMan okay so just build another industry somewhere else that wouldn't need you to lose green land

[@Vtole65]

How has he still not learned that you don't want wet beavers outside of the provided structures?!

[@NetAnon]

Matt still has not figured out that the reason for his log shortages is that he only plants oaks. This makes surges of log production. If he planted some other trees too he would get a constant stream of logs.

[@AtrakKarta]

8:56 "Once you get to the end of this road..." Thank you, editor, for editing out that several hours.

[@Rick_B]

If you put dams at the edge of the map, at the end of your river, you can retain more water during droughts. The downstream area can then be used for farming too.

[@similis1134]

I've also found it rather easy to contain badtides on most maps. Just create a reservoir near the Source and dynamite a way out of it to the edge, with sharp drop down. Main floodgate on one end, emergency floodgate towards map edge. Most of the time emerg gate is raised fully, when badtide comes, you even have a little time for being distracted before you drop it down. Sadly doesn't work on maps like the craters, where water comes out of the bottom.

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Nice time travel segment! With demolished buildings you need to remember to ultra high prioritize recovering resources from them otherwise your beavers will just ignore them until after your building projects are completed even when it’s like guys, those materials you’re waiting on are sitting right there in that pile.

[@fallatiuso]

What are you talking about, Matt? Logpumper69 is clearly having the time of his life growing his wood! Why, there's nothing more honorable than growing big wood for the colony; How else will you pump your logs? Logpumper69 was thinking five steps ahead of us all along. 😏👈

For future reference the water source blocks fill a half block each. Tested this in the world creator. So 4 wide for 7-8 source blocks is fine. Oh also water doesnt irrigate through levees anymore. So id assume contamination won't pass through either. So contam barriers behind levees should be redundant.

[@GigsVT]

Water sources have a strength setting, play with it in sandbox mode. Also there are ways to make the water flow faster rather than wider, without flooding. You need to make a sort of funnel spillway. But anyway don't assume all water blocks are the same.

[@SmokeandSpirit]

@@GigsVT Fair point. I had never noticed that. That just further muddies the water. Guess You have no sure fire way of determining besides testing on any specific map. And yeah they do flow through vertically stacked spaces. Though its not cut and dry volumetric flow like irl. Most of the time two water sources will flow fine through a 1 wide space. Though one can always look at the map their using to determine the smallest width the river is allowed. It makes a decent reference point, lol.

Use that badwater stream as a secondary power source. The frequency of badtides increases later on so you could run power off of it for planks and have constant production.

I played this map yesterday - I put floodgates in at the spawn of the water (where it flows normally) and dynamited a way out the other way of the colony, again with floodgates, to let the badwater flow out of. It saves a lot of resources and gives me a bigger area to irrigate, rather than to have badwater flow through/close to the main colony :) I really enjoy your videos!!
