A variation on this is to create irrigation trenches to some of the deep water sources, then you don’t need the dump active. But it’s best to go two levels deep with the trench, as water tends to drop a full level during the dry season. As trench is built, then place double platform with paths to get double use from the land.

I was inspired to play this map by your series and had a lot of fun with it. Two quick tips: Try to plant pines instead of birches for quick logs. You can get two cycles of pines and then replace them with maples and that gives you more time to plant maples since the pines take a little longer to grow. Also try to straighten out your paths (especially stairs)so they are going radially outward from the district center. It’ll extend your building and working range and save headaches later.

I think the best solution would be to build Levees around the water spawning points. Put a Floodgate at the back, against the edge of the map, and one in the front towards your valley. Then regulate the water out the front and back floodgates as needed to prevent flooding. Its not a exciting or pretty solution to the problem, but for an engineer it is the most practical. Unless you want to be an architect about it. This game really needs culverts and tunnels to drain water, that would be so exciting.

Birch is a trap. If you want fast wood, use the pines. Just a few days more for double the yield. And of course the most efficient ones is maple, but 30 days is quite the time to wait. Another tip: Don't pause the dam around your island, double low prioritize it. (Use the prioritizing option in the menu at the bottom to box select multiple buildings and give them a priority.) That way builders will build it when they have nothing else to do and there are spare logs and you don't have to micro manage them.

my understanding is that it's actually a processing/performance issue; the more beavers you have the more paths the game has to process at once as all the beavers are moving at once going in multiple directions to different jobs and tasks across the entirety of the map, so having multiple districts breaks that down into smaller bits so it can process say, 600 beavers in small 30 path chunks in a small area instead of trying to calculate 600 beavers moving at once over everything, especially when speeding up time. it makes the game run at a decent speed instead of like, 1 fps

as for your sort of "three future options to overcome the flooding" i think you should ignore the dynamite for now; it feels like a red herring. i think setting up levies to redirect the water off map (without dynamite) should be your medium term goal.

You reclaimed Land with Levies. You are therefore the Netherlands! 1:40 Longer growing trees are better for the bulk. With such a large plot, you want the workers to have as little work/plot as possible. And that ratio is better if they need longer to grow. But yes, a few quick growers to get going is good. Just don't forget to replace them once the system is working. 6:09 Don't those two wheels kinda look like the Princess Leia Hairdo? Or more Mickey Mouse ears? 6:25 You may also want to make any of the water routes more direct. You originally built the for minimal material. But some of them are reaching the edge of the District. Better make a more direct route. 13:18 Actually there was one Metal Deposit in on of the two large lakes, right at the bottom.
