In the newest beta branch patch, one non-upgraded well can serve 15 burgage plots. An upgraded well can serve 30. If you have more houses than that, you need more wells.

Greetings,

There have been a few posts about these "upgraded" wells that could be concerning.

- Players are stating that the version 1 wells are or can be used to fight fires when they break out.
- BUT, if these wells are upgraded to level 2 wells the workers stop using these new wells for fire fighting. And search out only level 1 wells for that task.

For those that are not using weather or have the option turned down or off, not a problem.
For all others, the ability to "Fight Fires" with these new wells could be disastrous.

For the OP,
Check what the original game settings were for "wells" and there placement.
- It near the bottom of the game set up list.
- Wells, allow placement "anywhere" or ONLY over a water vein as seen from the water overlay.

Same problem! Also, new wells don't supply to the unwatered houses (same 5 are highlighted when hovering over water supply)

are all 10 of those occupied? or just 5? as they don't show any supply if unoccupied, once they move in they will fetch water, fuel etc

Not asking me, but since I got the notifciation as well: They aren't. I think I'm mentally still in old SimCity: first power and water before people move in... Thanks!
