" if you dig a hole in a wall diagonally to a water source, water can come spurting out even without you receiving a warning about damp stone." Is this true anymore? The dev notes for today's version (November 1st) mentioned making squares touching water diagonally get the damp marker as well. --BahamutZERO 15:51, 1 November 2007 (EDT)

26 directions

26 directions? Really? I've been digging out tiles UNDER bodies of water trapped in rock, much less diagonal to them along the z-axis, and I haven't run into any flooding problems yet.--Xazak 18:44, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

If you dig a tunnel underneath a body of water, you retain the ceiling overhead. If you were to remove this ceiling (e.g. by digging a ramp of stairway upwards) then the water would certainly flow.

Losing is fun

What would you say to moving the article to fun and making this one a redirect? VengefulDonut 18:29, 5 November 2007 (EST)

  • That would be so funny! Don't know if it would gel with the rules, though. --Tarsier 19:53, 5 November 2007 (EST)
