Water (or magma) can be one of eight different depths. You can find out how deep water is by examining it with the look command, or by editing your d_init.txt file to display water as coloured numbers by changing the SHOW_FLOW_AMOUNTS value to YES.
Water depth ranges from 0-7, where 0 is no water and 7 is maximum depth. Note that water depth is per z-level (or z-index); that is, if a tile is at depth 7/7, it means that the water on that level is at maximum depth, not that the water extends down 7 z-levels. Three tiles vertically adjacent to one another that were all at 7/7 depth could therefore be seen as having 21 levels of depth.
The following is a qualitative description of how deep the water is relative to a dwarf:
| Depth | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Not a true value (that is, you will never see it displayed) - there is no water on this tile. |
| 1 | A puddle. This is the maximum depth dwarves will build on. Liquids will eventually evaporate. |
| 2 | Knee deep. |
| 3 | Waist deep. Aquatic creatures will air-drown in water at this depth or below. |
| 4 | Dangerous terrain. Movement trains swimming. Dwarves will not willingly path through water at this depth. |
| 5 | Head height. Dwarves are now swimming (or drowning, as the case may be). |
| 6 | Over a dwarf's head. |
| 7 | Risk of drowning. Can have water on floorless tile above. Creatures can freely swim through fortifications. |
