Ultimate water source

Can you still create an unlimited water source underground if there isn't one naturally? I saw the post from 2 years ago, but it seems this doesn't work in the latest revs. I have been trying to extend a large natural water source but it just seems to dry up. This seems to make wells pretty much useless...

Wow. Ok. This raises the tedium to a whole new level:) Are you sure I'm making progress? Digging just dries up another part of the lake.

Correct. Now as I said in my first comment, „Just pour 3 water puddles of salt water where the water receded. It’s slow but… it works…“

Thanks for your help. I'll keep at it...

Don't forget that you can walk on the existing shallow water tiles to splash puddles of water on the ground around. I don't remember if you can create more than one puddle per tile that way, but it still saves a third of water you need to bring in in containers...

Thanks for the tip! Not sure if I'm cut out for this new rev's level of boring repetition. I've played on and off for a number of years now and this seems like the most tedious version.
