Wonderful content, thanks a lot

Somebody show this video to RCE.

Do you have a beginners guide for this game?

I wonder if putting impermeable floors on top of water by using structures underneath does anything to evaporation. It would be very useful on hard mode with lengthy droughts to reduce evaporation.

The 2.2cms per waterfall edge explanation really helped. I've seen other videos that said "There is waterfall limit, just make this pattern" without explaining why... Often times their weird pattern didn't fit my build. Without knowing what's going on I wasn't able to modify my design. After watching your video I was able to modify my design and doubled my waterwheel output.

A few interesting things you missed: (1) IMPORTANT: Water Sources on the edge of maps Easily the third most common water question on the Timberborn discord, (#1 is the waterfall limit, #2 is irrigation). Water cannot leave the map from a water column if the water source is on the edge of the map. In all other cases, water sources will pass water without blocking it. (2) DIY Badwater Dome Since Update 6 introduced impermeable floors, it is possible to seal a badwater source (OR goodwater source) by building a closed box of levees and impermeable floors around it. This is the only way to seal a good water source. (3) Water Height Limit. The height limit for water is elevation 34, two full blocks above the maximum build height. As such, it can spill over even a maximum height dam. (4) Waterwheels and CMS Because of how CMS is calculated, waterwheels will register all of the flow beneath them, even if they are on stilts, as long as the water is above the bottom of the wheel and below the axle. This can lead to insane cases where waterwheels are generating 5000+ Horsepower each. (5) The Septic Tank. By stacking 1-high layers of overhangs with impermeable floors on them, you can create a chamber with a very, very high rate of evaporation. This works because evaporation is calculated per water column, and impermeable floors split the water column into multiple units. As the name implies, it is potentially capable of evaporating water as fast as the sources on the map can provide it.

Can u make video about new metal production rate? Example u need 6 smelter to fully use/balance scrap metal produced. U need 2 explosive factory to run eff mine at full capacity. Like this stuff

thank you for that vidéo

This is the definitive video on timberborn water physics.

Pumping good water from a mixed source will also concentrate the bad water. This is more noticeable in stagnate pools

man I'm glad I found your channel and this game, ty for the guide!

Amazing work, keep it up!!

Fun that you filmed this video before your SteelTide City Center was built haha :)

Just in time for update 7!

Man I always love your video's!!! always helpful.. always amazing builds!!! <3 <3 11:55 You were talking about water folding. Water folding doesnt work when you have a long straight path like you had shown... think of it this way.. you have a river thats 5 tiles wide, and runs on ground level 5... where you make the waterfall down to level 4.. if you have the drop down look like an arrow pointed UPstream. that allows the water to move forward a tile as well as waterfall down, then the next it repeats.. so going from a 5 wide even drop thats 11 CMS, fut folding will give you 19.8.. BUT... since it all folds toward the center.. it speeds up the water in the center line :D Hope that helps! :D .... 13:12 to help with the water backing up.. at the corner I have the drop to the next line diagonal so it gives 6.6cms instead of 4.4 .. it helps a little.. But the eff3ct still remains...

4 hours after first U7 test drops lol

Thank you very much for the video, I've been wanting something straight forward about water mechanics for so long! I just wish that the timberborn mechanics and statics would be me more clear... I always end up building away more than needed (at least now I can actually know that my dams are enough, instead of just going bigger until the evaporation is conterbalanced)

You explained it very clearly ! Timberborn sometimes is not intuitive

Thanks for the video. Very informative, concise and clearly explained. There is only one thing that I've come away a little puzzled about: your explanation of floodgates and sluices being about upstream/downstream height makes sense, but I would've liked some more practical examples of their use. What specific applications require the use of one, the other or perhaps both? (Apart from the badwater diversion, you covered that one.) Are there any particular floodgate/sluice setups that are particularly flexible or useful? If you feel like making an addendum video to this one, I'd very much like to see that.

Hi

RCE better watch this... 😂😂😂. Thanks man, amazing video. Very informative!

I have always thought irrigation (or water draining through the ground) rather than evaporation made more sense. Hence, larger bodies of water don't drain as quickly as a small puddle into the ground. This makes me wonder how high cms rivers vs. low cms rivers are affected by this "draining/evaporation", if there is any difference. It also makes me wonder how impermeable floors (or completely sealed aqueducts vs. on-land rivers) and irrigation barriers affect this "draining/evaporation" effect.

Does water in a pipe evaporate?

You can decrease water level difference in your "snake" by providing smoother turns to it. I've tested it recently, after watched your tests with water levels in "snake" power plant in steeltide series.

Someone send RCE this vid.

Thumbs up! You've always had great understanding of water physics and used them well (especially well done pipes). This short vod shows absolutely everything for update 6 for water physics in a pill. Great work. Every Timberborn player should see this.

Great video filled with great information. Thank you!

Zeddic with a Wednesday Surprise!!!!!!!

Very informative, thank you! :)

Love the video, please make more guides and tutorials like these! I have over 500 hours in the game yet I'm still learning new things thanks to all the game's updates (and not being that smart or technical 😅)

I learned something, and ive played a lot!

The most important video RCE will ever see!

The water video we all needed.

Thank you for this guide! Really helpful and clear! However, I still don’t quite understand the concept of different heights in the canal. I watched your episode with the power plant and this video… and I still don’t get it! Really tricky technique

v good video. i have played seance day 1 and still learned

The best part about dams is that you can utilise natural formations. Flooding the full map is a good longtime goal. Islands? More like Oilrig.

I wonder if update 7 will include a metal canals that you could drop into a deep ditch to maintain contamination?

love this game!!

Great Video! I've learned a lot! I hope they'll change the evaporation for bodies of water covered by impermeable floors in the future.

What a great tutorial!

Someone send this to RCE

Jo beaverfriends u can check out Update 7 since today. Just have to activate the Experimental branch

Someone tag @realcivilengineer

UPDATE 7 EXPERIMENTAL 🗣

Probably the best explanation of the games water physics. Thank you!

Nobody tell rce. The fact that he doesn't know is what makes me watch.

great vid

Thanks for this mate, I just failed a normal run on a 50 x 50 because I tried building too complicated a irrigation system. Gonna calm it down and stick with the 3 wide irrigation. Also... do you know if water is affected by water crops? can you still just plonk them in the way?? Cheers

Wednesday upload?

Yes thx for this vid I want to know how water worked
