Glass not watertight

[IndieFlock]

So yesterday I read someone asking about the possibility of making an underwater enclosure, like an aquarium tunnel thing. Spend 3+ hours on the build but did not succeed. Glass stops rain but is not waterproof. For those of you that wanted to know.

I basically made a glass cocoon for a path to run through, dug a hole, dropped the building in there (gave it a floor too) and sealed the entrance and exits with terrain. It wouldn't let me place water. Then I tried it with a watertight habitatbarrier but still wouldn't let me place water high enough. Remarkebly the water (more of a shallow puddle) it did accept went straight through the glass.
I think the water placement was blocked by the path somehow since the glass isn't waterproof. But it's just my guess. Anyway I tried it and failed. :)

The glass is waterproof maybe you just have to rework your design.

This for example works perfectly fine :)

That is not true. In my zoo i made an habitat for my Hippo. Guest can go down below water level to watch the Hippo swim.

nRg I can't see your file.

To be clear I mean a tunnel so guests walk under the water.

I don`t know how it works if you want to walk under the water. I only tried this...

Yes I know that works. If i build a structure, something square and completely closed, the inside keeps dry with rain but not with the placement of water. Then it runs straight trough. Does that explain it better?

Then if i run a path through that structure (ofcourse make sure the entrence and exits are properly sealed) Then it won't let me place the water at all. Not even with the barrier around it as shown in your picture.

that could work if you placed a building on other side of path and then a building on top (using building on either side of path as base and filled it with water. Would kind of look like its underground.

I found the same problem with path and fill in water

Mm, that's unfortunate... I'm not sure it ever says outright that glass is watertight, so it might be intentional, but it'd be really nice to have the underwater tunnel you suggest.

I've seen an example of a glass tunnel under an enclosure on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlanetZoo/comments/dtgqit/true_underwater_tunnel/
