How much depends on the size of the lake and the height of the dam. First, the dam starts producing electricity. The level of the lake must be set to reach that bevel. When you place a dam, you will notice that it's beveled near the top.
That spawn point isn't necessary either if other mechanics related to dams are done properly. Either way, it overtops the dam and pushes water into the lake. Either the fill height is higher than the dam, or its size is too large causing water to bulge up at that spot. (Presumably, there are other water spawn points filling the lake.) That's not necessary if you set the spawn points filling the lake to a height that doesn't overtop the dam.īut more importantly, it looks like you have a water spawn point on the river side of the dam that is filling the river. In your image, it looks like you have a water spawn point on the lake side of the dam set lower than the lake level to act as a drain. If you don't choose to change the flow to act like a natural river be very sure to keep a close watch for pollution. Just another case of CS throwing logic and clear thinking out the window. Meaning the in-game top of river elevation has been set so as to prevent the eventual real life flooding event you would expect to see in that particular situation. Turns out you can and the map maker likely has used the water tool to make the river work more like a lake instead of a river. Or you can just live with the oddity if you want and can stand it. To reset the source height and the bottom of river elevation and sea level. You can if you wish use the water tool along with the leveling tool that comes with Strangely enough the dev's didn't know a lot more about natural water flow than these rather confused map makers. i have also found maps that have rivers that flow to the center. Some people have absolutely no idea how water is supposed to act. TLDR the water level of the lake is lower than my dam, but the water level behind the dam has risen higher than the dam and is flooding the river basin/over the dam back into the lake. I'm just confused af and don't know what to do.
I feel like I'm watching physics break and don't want to flood my city so I took a screenshot linked above and saved my game to come ask for help before ♥♥♥♥ hit the fan. So I tore down the old dam and built a lower one, but now my riverbanks are flooding, and somehow had enough water to start flowing backwards over the dam, and still generating enough water to borderline flood the river where it's supposed to be going. It basically dried up the my river and wasn't producing power, so I looked it up and the problems seemed to be that it was too high and the recommendation was to lower it. So I'm new to the game but I got the chance to build a dam and I thought it'd be cool so I did it.
