Well, just got back from building some boats on the new Water Terrain. And I've come up with a conclusion that is all explained in this screen shot...

So has anyone made an actual half-decent boat for the Water yet? I really would like to see one. |

Yup, also if you make a hollow boat that sits lower in the water than the bottom inside surface of the boat the water will show up in the boat. I've tried making boats that have paddlewheels, but they don't work. I made a scripted boat using a script I found. It worked but I still had to use BodyVelocity, BodyAngularVelocity and BodyGyro. The only difference between the old water and the new water was you don't have to put BodyPosition into it. |

Yea, I tried a paddle boat as well, it didn't go too well as I didn't stay in the water very long. Yes, my boat turned into an airplane and flew away.
I hope they plan on fixing this. I'd love to play a boat building game. |

| Reduce your torque to 1 and the boat won't flip. |

| I think the only way the new water can possibly hold a boat up would be if you stuck some bricks underneath it other wise you fall right through. I went for a swim earlier. |

| I dislike new water terrain, just as i dislike all terrain. Water doesnt allow me o swim in it unless i take my hats off, otherwise i drown. Player-made water is much better |

| Yeah drop some bricks in it that are wood and set the Flow Direction to Y they don't flow I was like, .-. I might be missing something but I don't think so. |

| Hahaha, that's because the Y variable is up/down, not in any actual direction. |
