Good to know

  • Drain lowers the water in this body of water by one step. Drain removes all the water from the body of water under the cursor; other bodies of water remain.
  • Water does not rise above the overall level of the plot: the lawn will not be flooded. A shallow pit will not hold water.
  • Water has no brush: size and strength have no effect.
  • Ctrl+Z undoes a bucket click, and the next click does not bring back the undone water.
