So water just comes with inherent problems but its not impossible, just rather hard to perfect.Д«ut I really think this game needs one or the other at some point. How do we do universal water draining animations for different shaped rooms ? This type of water though, does not flow.ДЄnd this is where it gets complex for this system, in Subn, all base components for all players are the same, so doing animations for that is much more uniform, easy.ДЇor our game, every base can be different. We also need proper under water swimming animation and the like, if for example we mimic a few of those features we would end up with people building underwater bases all over the place, how cool would that be ay !

What Subn did was put in code for draining a base, animations to suit, but effectively the water in that game works the same as ours, set a level on the map, done for whole map. Which from what I can tell is a level based system like ours. Its a system much more similar to how Subnautica have done it. Now there is another system we could go to that uses the current level system and is in my opinion much more likely than the above dynamic system. So its a complex thing that I hope we one day get. Water, or fluid, needs to be capable of building up, like a creek into a damn, so things like traps, as seen in Minecraft, are possible.Д«ut without that level of dynamics, its really not worth doing.ДЄnd its a question of whether the map system and scale of the planets we use, are capable of this without the game turning into a slide show. The game needs to be capable of that kind of dynamic's, how do we do that where its not really volumetiric ? We set it to a level, done for whole map.Дynamic water completely changes that, now I can put water in a bucket, take it up a hill, and pour it into a ditch and create a small puddle. Our planets are flat rectangle maps, they give the illusion of a round planet, its a clever system that gives us a proper level on the map while keeping the default layer of the map dead flat.

I dont know the answers to alot of these questions as Im not a programmer.

I could be wrong about that.Д«ut Ravien is spot on, dynamic water is much much harder.ДЄnd the main reason is the planets are so huge, is the water going to be volumetric, if so we are talking huge amounts of PC power to run the game. I believe NMS use a level system to terrain as we use very similar system.
