40d:Water flow
Jump to navigation

Water flow is an informal term used occasionally by players to denote the ability of specific water tiles to power a waterwheel. While there obviously is a game feature at work, the specifics are unclear/unknown and seem counterintuitive at times.
Creating water flow seems to be possible where a channel is dug from a brook or river, back to the same brook or river with no diagonal connections. For example #1 will create flow, while #2 will not and #3 may or may not.
