Water that [[flow]]s over contaminants can pick them up and redistribute them as the water moves. Water does not appear to move mud, although mud will be created any time water covers a tile. The mechanics of redistributing contaminants using water is not well understood although there have been some observations of strange behavior when mixing blood and water. | Water that [[flow]]s over contaminants can pick them up and redistribute them as the water moves.

− | And I can speak from experience, I have NEVER seen water move mud. I'm even running tests of it in my well guide fortress, there's no signs of any mud contaminating the water. The dwarves are fine with the water coming out of a well situated directly over a pile of mud. Whoever is making these claims about filtering mud with grates and bars needs to lurk (and experiment) moar. | + | And I can speak from experience, I have NEVER seen water move mud.

::Further experimentation shows that water moves mud around a room, redistributing it. Mud will be in different piles when a room dries than before. You are correct that cleaned water will pick up more mud from unsmoothed floors. But who uses unsmoothed floors in their water system, you want it blocked up with 'shrooms? The "stagnant" modifier must be an invisible contaminant. I was confused by the fact that mud will collect on grates, and a I smooth my floors. What version are you playing? Do you have a "liquids" category in the first page of your stocks screen? What is listed there? Perhaps I'm not the only one who needs to experiment more, yeah? Or maybe you just need to update your executables so you are playing the same game we are.
