How high will the water rise?

[2tecs]

I keep moving my base thinking ive moved out of the max water level but it keeps coming higher than I expected. I am building near the centre (between the central canyon and the iridium cave) I thought it would max out at the lower areas. Anyway, do I need to just do one big move to the rear of the map to the highest areas to avoid getting washed out? I cant gauge how far the water will want to keep coming

Usually doesn't go any higher than "25" if you look at your coordinates in the bottom left corner. the 2nd set of digits is the "height?"

Example: 248:24:93

Since its only 24, there could be water in that location. get to 26 and "should" be fine.

Something like that anyways...

Anything past the tilted rock in the middle should be fine.

It's the air reclamation system. It's a lot of one-way valves letting air into the bottom of the module to be concentrated and the O2 extracted.
The water gets in through the valves, then short out the electronics.

Blame Sentinel Corps for only licensing the cheapest module designs.

Thx for response - ok then it may make sense, but I thought the cabins were tight because of the oxygen. Anyway - I should build up on top of the "hill".

LOL, what keeps the water out when you open the door, in your thinking?

Just wait till you connect a couple of modules that don't quite line up and the oxygen stays inside in spite of the obvious gap open to the outside :D

Plot magic, mostly. I just figure it is an airtight force field.

25 is the surface of the Great Lake "1" is where my lander is

[windowsystemcomputers]

592:1:687 is my lander

[windowsystemcomputers]

Great Lake Base : built on the high point in the middle of the lake is 487.26.509 . Had to stack 3-5 foundation to make the platform above the water line, work from the highest point out. FYI: the need for air under water has returned for breathable atmosphere (fixed finite Air so it only applies to above water)

[windowsystemcomputers]

It has a bug the need for air kicks in on some shallow water area!

Very easy.I saw the water rising and made windows instead of doors in hope to get a kind of aquarium. Understood?
