Moats

Description
You can dig moats.
This video shows how to build moats.


How it works
You need a shovel to dig.
Right click on a natural ground tile and select Dig Moats. (moats are walkable tiles)
Over time, the moat will fill with rain water. (tainted water: you can use it to wash, water crops etc..)
Over time, the moat will fill with water from contiguous tile if any.
Once the moat is filled in, it becomes a vanilla water tile. (water are blocking tiles)


Sandbox options
You can decide to hide shores around water tiles builts from moats.
This allows to show paths that may be hidden otherwise.


FAQ
Works for B41 and prior versions.
Use this other mod for B42 and further versions.
The mod can be added or removed from the mod list anytime.
At moats dig time as well as at moats flood time, all objects on the tile are removed.
Works in multiplayer. It was lightly tested in MP so use it at your own risks.
In MP, water tiles recently created may be invisible at first(black). Quit and reload to show them properly.
If you have the mod but it does not work, follow steps 3 and 4 from here.
If you have generic modding questions, ask on PZ Discord[discord.com].
If you still have questions or suggestions ask in the comments and begin your with 'I read the descriptions'.


Ask for permission[theindiestone.com]
This mod can only be added to and extended with the express permission from the original creator. Having received permission, credit must be given to the original creator, both within the files of the mod and wherever the mod roams online.
If no permission is received you may not alter the mod.

If you wanna support kind words are very welcome.
If you don't have any, you can still
[ko-fi.com] or use donate on paypal[www.paypal.com].


That's it.

Why are you still here ?
There is nothing more for you here. Go digging !

Nevermind, found out you can get rid of them with... a sledgehammer? Filling them back in with dirt would make way more sense.

How do you re-fill a moat with soil? Say I wanted to get rid of one I dug accidentally. There doesn't seem to be an option for it.

Some of my moats is not filled (not by rain, not from next tiles) how to fix it?

noob question.
if moat is detach from body of water, will it be filed with water?
when moat is filled, can you fish in it, if the moat is big enough?

I followed all the steps, including 3 and 4 and it still wont give me the option on my multiplayer server. Does this not work on pre existing MP servers? It says its active in my mods and the mods loaded in the server

Floors need to be destroyed to prevent zombies and NSCs from entering each time. A remote-controlled drawbridge large enough to be used by trucks would be the pinnacle of fortress-building.

yeah, build floor
