Make sure you have enough carriers to tend to the buildings. That's about all you can do.

i never had any water in the tower as well. i made sure i always had a few carriers assigned but the air wells would always stock up and stop working. the towers were never filled, not even a little.
i think they just ignore the building all togehter. probably not worth building then.

That's really weird because on my latest run I think I have somewhere in the ballpark of 6k water stored. You might want to send off a bug report ingame to see if they ca figure out anything.

Just build more Wells. There are just too many things to do. Carriers is just not enough.
Fail to notice how much goods carrier can carrier at one time.

They're probably on a lower priority than moving everything else around. Even with several carriers, they probably moved 1 bucket to a tower, which was immediately grabbed by a farmer and used, and you just thought they never filled it.

Yeah, it seems that carriers can only carry 3 resources at a time which is kinda tiny. I wish there was a research to upgrade that, like making carts or baskets or something. (edit: to the main topic specifically, I also had my tanks with extra space while the wells were maxed out, especially in Jungle biomes. so it's not just you.)

And I would love if you could connect the buildings with automatic pipes or aqueducts or something like in the Caesar games, so that the wells would automatically be emptied into other buildings! But that's probably a bit too complicated.

build the extractor near the farms and the tanks more far away, since farmers take it from nearest...as above said transporters are needed with 120 population i had like 10-15 transporters and like 2500 water stored;) water collectors probably 20. the worker huts you need to switch around like to building after storm, etc.
