[@RandyFortier]

Also, he has three simultaneous mega projects.

[@oshimia6746]

The problem with blocking up the bunghole and dumping water into the crater, is that you make it pretty much impossible to get any badwater that you need for stuff in the future. Maybe you should build a *second* megaquaduct around the bunghole leading of to the edge of the crater and off the edge of the map so that you will always have access to the badwater.

[@artcasual99]

While that's a good idea, Matt's seasons usually don't last that long. He'll set up a huge project for the season and once that's done, onto the next season and project. Once the Poo-cano is fully clogged and full of water, this season will most likely end. No use in doing all that if he's not gonna use it in the future.

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Someone said there’s a second bunghole outside the volcano so he could always use that. Also Matt never really goes crazy with terraforming the way Skye does so he doesn’t really need a ton of Badwater for dynamite. That and as soon as Version 6 is out of experimental he’ll want to create a new town and a new season.

[@Niyucuatro]

There's a version of the dome that allows you to get badwater from it. Like a combo dome pump.

[@christryba5536]

Hi Matt! If you replace the dome with te pumping station you can use the "bummhole" of te map still to produce badwater. Than you need to build a staircase and walls into the depts so the beavers can get to it, and you can still fill te vulcano with water.😉 Thats another 10 jobs, and 1200 badwater capacity!

[@AKStovall]

that building will flood out though, so if you filled it with regular water, it wouldn't work anymore.

[@christryba5536]

@@AKStovall You can levee wall around it and the staircase to avoid the drowning of the pumping station.

[@philippeloquin5210]

[@WhichIsIt]

20:53 Water physics is weird, a one wide drain is fine The problem is you made an elevation change in the water channel, and since there is a limited amount of water that can go over a block edge you limited it to 1 edge of water, Basically the channel being one wide is fine as long as it’s flat and leads to a large flat section since then the water has a ton of block edges to be split between

[@AlchemistCH]

And also there is the flow speed. Sudden influx of water into space with narrow outflow can rapidly increase water level, but as the flow speed in the outflow picks up, the water level can start to drop again

[@jorgedaniel9656]

Water physics in this game are the reason I stopped playing this game, they are truly awful considering they are a main component of gameplay. I really hope the new update is as good as it seems to be

[@RailRide]

Just out of curiosity (mainly since I probably haven't read enough comments), what happens to water flowing onto a levee block from above? Would a trough of levee blocks constrain flowing water, or would it leak through and spill out the bottom (must be a eason for waterproof floors awaiting the next update). I'm assuming then that water flowing into such a levee trough (cross section assuming a "U" shape) elevated on platforms would not work under the current plysics model and the water would simply spill through somehow. I pondered this being that the "megaqueduct"appears destined to block off the water flow in the bottom of the valley.

[@AlchemistCH]

@@RailRide In the experimental, watertight floors are basically height 0 levees - so it's pretty much choice between spending some metal or making extra layer of wood. both options work, no need to put watertight floors over levees. In the old version, you simply are not allowed to put levees on top of anything else than ground and other levees. To be fair, when I bought the game I was disappointed with these water limitations - but v6 experimental was already a thing. With it, options increase infinitely. Including unlimited functional depth of reservoirs and automated water discharge with sluices

[@RailRide]

@@AlchemistCH Thanks for the clarification. So in the version being used in this series, when the "megaqueduct" is completed, there are no alternatives to it having a tremendous amount of water tied up in it before the 'poocano' even starts to fill. Under those rules I imagined an aqueduct comprised of 4x-wide stacks of levee blocks with the outer rows rising 1-2 blocks higher, leaving a channel in the middle. The idea being to ferry water to the 'cano without having to tie up a water column reaching all the way to gound level for its entire length. But it would be twice as expensive wood-wise, still block off the valley floor, and still _sounds_ like the existing physics would prevent it from working as intended.

[@hightechredneck8587]

Matt Keep in mind. if you use a cap your whole map loses access to badwater, dynamite and also extract. Use a derrek instead, that way it caps the bad water and you still get massive production.

[@SmokeandSpirit]

lol what's a derrek?

[@hightechredneck8587]

Looking forward to the next episode... especially the gravity batteries and the badwater cap... although the comments make me wonder if Matt will regret his decision to build the cap rather than the treatment plant.

[@subynut]

He will when he realizes there are things he will need that require badwater to manufacture! 🤣

[@donzapatero4808]

Matt I think there is a bad water treatment plant that uses the badwater spot to retrieve badwater without letting it flow out. That way you can still get bad water without having it affect the rest of the map

[@horlogeur]

Did you know that just under the speed and the working hours, you can select witch construction layer you want to see? You are on the infinite layer, but if you lower it, maybe it can be a little bit easier for you to build the mega shaft

[@rumpelstiltskin6150]

Rounding up how much of a resource instead of down, is such an Architect move. Matt: *sees he just over 800* we're in the 900s. Rounding down is such a flex, rounding up makes you look broke, and more importantly, jeopardizes projects if you rely on that data.

[@Purrfarming]

I suspect that the badtise outputs more pop from THE BUMHOLE OF THE MAP and so made the POOCANO over flow

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Hey Matt you can always build the aquaduct and use the fresh water to wash the poo water out of the poocano. It’s not very efficient but perhaps it’s more efficient than allowing the poo water to evaporate. Another thing you should consider is pumping the water out using badwater pumps. Also congrats on finally finishing the Tower of Power!

glad you figured out the stairs situation for bad water but you should probably get the bad water rig onto it, will stop the bad water flow but that will let you collect bad water without having to have it flow anywhere. takes jobs but you'll never have to worry about pumping bad water again considering that's the only bunghole on the map haha

[@cloudy-gaming6]

21:00 the reason water level raised is because old bad water pump was keeping it below that with the help of the drain so if you put it back it will stay below

[@MysticalHood]

The up and down arrow button on the top right can remove levels so you can see different levels. Love the videos.

[@morasiu1]

Like for that farmer with Mr.Crab edit at 6:00

[@NickBosshard]

What I've found very effective, especially for water pumps, is to place a small storage right next to it and set it to supply. That way the log pumpers always have a quick place to store the water.

[@TomK32]

Regarding highly geared from the Power Tower, Actual gears with actual ratios, that'd be super fun but I don't know what sort of evil things you could power with that. On the other hand, I'm sure beavers need something like a wind-tunnel for high level research and that wind-tunnel will need high gearing.

[@antithese101]

My favorite series is back with another episode!

[@therealtastyturnip]

When you start putting water into the poocano, don't completely seal up the drain, put a bunch of floodgates so you can drain it again if something happens.

[@pensfan044]

Matt, you're gonna need badwater as a crafting resource in future. Capping off the only reliable source of badwater and filling the poocano with water means you won't be able to get it out without draining all the water or letting the water evaporate. It would be better if you built levees surrounding the badwater source and made a poo canal leading it off the map so you can actually pump it for storage. You can fill the rest of the poocano with water, but you'll need to have SOME ability to pump badwater reliably at any given time.

[@kebu2579]

This editor's pretty funny lol

[@Notarocketscientist]

Locking editors in the dungeon, sending beavers of to death camp. If it will continue we might see Matt in the true crime series...

Shaming beavers because of their name? And not using their work force? That's such a waste of resources and definitely an architect move.

[@subynut]

Usually he shames them to a life of hard work and exploits their power generation. I think he's getting soft ever since that baby entered his life. They change a man, you know... 🤣

[@dicebar_]

If you place two storage facilities near/on the megaquaduct, you can have haulers - who can carry twice as much as builders - carry construction components, making your builders far more efficient. Why two storage facilities, you ask? Well, then you can build the megaquaduct shape in the strongest shape too!

[@ventsislavminev]

You can increase the gravity batteries capacity even more by drilling to the bottom of the map with dirt excavators.

[@edopronk1303]

Or explosives

[@mikistenbeck6517]

my theory on why the Crapcano suddenly vomitted out more shit is becasue of the Badtide, it "supercharges" the flood.

[@jacksonstarky8288]

You have to give a shout-out to the architects among the Patreon supporters... willing to do the jobs other beavers won't do. 🤣

[@LunaliBrighteyes]

Down to the last chance to change your mind and put in the correct cap on the badwater source instead of the dome. What will happen, stay tuned for the next episode.

[@VellenusKane]

Don't know if you know this but in the upper right hand corner underneath the Working Hours is a Visible Layers selector. So you could hide the upper layers of the Power Tower and more easily install the High Power Shafts.

[@analogbunny]

The best source of bad water is actually just the source of good water. Just keep it paused except for bad tides. The pump (and bad water storage) would also be on the same side of the map as the explosive facilities and paper mill, meaning shorter hauling time and more efficient use of your beavers' time. Production line engineering? 🤔

[@HarrIock]

This series is legitimately a comedy of errors. I feel spoiled getting to watch JC play Timberborners.

[@TheLostAngileTLA]

When it comes to bad water surges, they actually produce more water than usual once it happens. That's why it flooded.I had a similar issue when I playing.

[@h.1699]

17:00 we are on which episode now? i think on every episode matt stopped those pumps over a badtide or mentioned having to do it there have be comment about how it only decreases efficiency unless only pure badwater is in the reservoir.

[@WJS774]

Put a floodgate in the outlet from the volcano. Then you can let the badwater out, or raise the level to feed the pump.

[@London_Prime]

Finally, a KZbinr who owns up to keeping his editors captive in a dungeon/basement.

[@SmokeandSpirit]

25:20 You have two farmhouses right next to each other two levels apart when a stairway or two would provide one with access to both farms. Stairs dont need to be connected to paths to function for job range extension.

[@natsuudesu5069]

Finally!!!! Another TIMBERBORNEEEEEEEE!!!!!

[@MrDanAng1]

An alternative for a Mega project is to fill the bottom of the poocano with platforms and overhangs with impermeable floor and open up the bad water source and lead it out through a low channel where the poo water is emptied out of the volcano now, and fill the higher three quarters of the poocano with clean water and let it out through sluises near the top of the poocano toward the direction where the original beaver colony where at the start of the game, greening up that area and reclaim it for the beavers. That would be a nice end goal!

[@Szczeppek]

That would need update 6 and Matt already decided to not move to experimental when building tower

[@Coo-de1lw]

The update is not out yet

[@MrDanAng1]

Oh, sorry, I thought he was using update 6! Well, that certainly explain why he's building the aquaduct the way he is! Still, sorrounding the bad water source with levees and channeling out bad water one way and drinking water another way would be nice and still doable, just not invisible!

Because you may have forgotten, if you put decorations near buildings (expecally houses) they are given the well-being scores while they sleep and work inside the covered building.

[@anatolequarante1884]

water pumps still work during badtides, they're just less efficient

[@jorgedaniel9656]

Regarding wellbeing, it's impossible to get a perfect wellbeing score with the default working hours. Even with 12 I struggled to get a good enough design. Beavers take some time walking to the fun buildings when they stop working, which they take some time in, and at a certain point before they have to wake up they go to bed. There are lots of buildings and they don't have enough time to get a full meter on everything. My fix to this was to give them weekends off, every few days I gave them a day off to just fill their meters. You can also just make bots and free up your beavers but I hate the bots and never use them
