Intro
The whole idea came from here.


I discovered this while exploring the cave, realized that water in this game only expands horizontally unless the water is dropped from the top.
Building the Water Dispenser
Core roles are
1.Rat made blocks except roofs retain water longer.
2.Water only expands horizontally.
3.Ratizens won't drown in a 1 block high water.

Behold the Water Dispenser!



Ratizens won't drown in a 1 block high water, there are a lot of ways to do this, just keep the core roles in mind.



Make the exit 2 blocks high when expanding the top, but beware, keeping this for too long will drown the water tank worker.
Spider Web Farm
Spider can only move on empty blocks, trapping a spider in empty blocks around ladder can create a easy to harvest web farm.
Outro
Now you have Water Dispensers to keep your Ratizens hydrated.

hi @reise, can I have the map seed for that first SS please?

I love this. Build it every time!
Add a wooden door to the exit and open it when you need to expand.
Close the door and you can also drown unwanted ratizens there.Really useful!

i build a functioning sewer system between the 1 and third layer of my city plan, and that alone provides shit tons of water since it collects water across the whole map, and i have a sumpt in the centre of the tree that collects all acces water then dumps it deeper down into a cistern.

Civil engineering 101, the level of culture is measured in the complexity of their sewer system.

does the spout thing produce infinite water? and is there any reason to destroy them? Cause I have like 4 or 5 right next to me and it seemed like the water level was staying constant when I tried collecting the top layer for a while.

There's no rain during winter and drought, the empty space on top is a perfect space to build some dewebs. I would say you don't need the deweb if you aren't planing to sell water though, rabbit hole along can sustain a lot of ratizens, it all boils down to your city plan.
MrGrumpsman 6 Jan, 2024 @ 10:29am 
Out of curiosity, are the dewebs necessary in any way? Would the rain not fall the same if there was empty space in place of them? I haven't got to using them yet so I don't know anything about them, but it seems to me that they wouldn't be useful at all if the rain just fills up the tank anyway.
