How long until a well has water?

[SirRantsAlot]

I built a well yesterday just to test and tody it has still 0% water. Did I missed something? Or is it a known bug?

Has it rained ?
Have you left the area and come back later, sometimes that starts it as well

Rain? A well is usually fed from groundwater afaik.
And how far do I have to leave the area?

UPDATE
I went to the other side of the lake and when I came back the well is now at 16%. But it did not rained.

ours at base is empty till it rains it seems, and yes the ground well should work that way but Scum is weird

Its weird cause it is still ea. But sometimes it is a mistake/Misunderstanding by players so it is better to confirm before reporting a bug ;)

Hello :),

As already mentioned, the fountain will fill up over time. It doesn't need rain for that. Just do a few other things and soon you'll have water inside your base. An exception here is the improvised rain collector, which needs rain to fill up.
