Water trick?


Diggis

So I've got a simple question (at least, I think it's simple. ). In a few base pics, I've seen people make some fake water in their base. I recently started up my own SG and I've been wondering how to do this. Can anyone help me out?

They've used the slow field, but it's limited in what rooms you can place it and there appears to be a bug in I17 that makes it look bad.

Ah, so that's would take more resources then I thought. Oh well.

yah... the slow field needs to be crafted from one of the special base crafting tables. It will require some salvage + prestige to craft. Since it is a "defensive item", it can only be used in rooms that will accept/permit defensive items in them.

The bug that makes some of them look ugly is actually connected more to what you have your water graphic settings at (this is due to the Ultra Mode changes). So, if you have your graphic settings at medium for water effects, it actually looks somewhat decent.

The slow field will only cover one "section" of the floor. The trick to getting the water effect from it, is to actually place it above the floor level by using the special "floating" technique.

Which table does one need to craft it, and what is the name of the defense item? I'm not seeing "slow field" listed from any of them. Does it require an SG badge?

If you have the right tables, make sure that you select the option to "Show Recipes Missing Ingredients" when you open the crafting window

Ah, that could have been the problem. I'll check when I can log in again. Good thinking!
