I am wondering now water channels will be required for farming. I imagine not yet but we shall see. I'm still looking forward to eventual weather

i reckon it will be required to farm now but it makes it a challenge

The talk of having to manually place water in creative is making me now wanting to vent at Red51 for not considering adding a water generation type device for survival players to floor their own canals. Again, a rain catcher, humidity catcher/generation, and such. Some sort of water generation to then 'bucket' back into canals and such.

I'm sure its more of a "no more time" situation rather that not considering it. Based on previous discussions on this forum, there is supposed to be a option to place water in creative mode. I imgagine placing water blocks with buckets might become a thing some day but I just hope its not so easily exploitable as the infinite water trick in Minecraft. Creative mode would be the exception where creating lakes would be easy.

I agree with you there. But ya, I was thinking more of what I saw in the 'Feed the Beast' modpacks for Minecraft where water generates in certain areas. Basically things like rain-catchers, humidity stuff, and anything where Rising World could even regain water from watermelons & such, after filtering it.

I'm sure rain-catchers, water pumps, hoses, and all sorts of stuff will come eventually but the last few months Red was working on the water itself which was a challenge enough. Making models are easy. Its the code behind how they interact with water that is difficult to work out.

Well aware that [coding is a pain & such]. Just something to bring back to attention as to give survival players something to do. I can wait for it in the next few updates, or so.

Alright, guess we're still going to wate on the water so I guess it's time to hit the Youtube + deal with KanColle's daily quest in about 10 minutes (4pm est) for the typical daily quest resets.

What was the next project besides bug fixing today's stuff. Do we get any quick updates to make the game more appealing? Like reevaluating blueprints (area protection, rotation)? Animal Breeding?

I am a bit disappointed about red. The update should be here since one hour but nothing. I think it was a bad idea to say a time beacause many people waited and there is nothing

it does sometimes take steam a bit longer to update it

didn't it say between 6-9? be patient, it'll be here soon. no need to be disappointed.

We have to wait for the change-log to post

yea but see if it happens in the next 1 hour

a Time window was given and we are still within the time window so I fail to see the disappointment
