Notes

  • The maximum storage capacity of underground terrains can be configured with the Water storage percentage attribute.
  • Note that this fraction is relative to the maximum water storage capacity of the terrain and not relative to the underground terrain volume.
    • Underground terrain volume this fraction applies to does not include the underground height of the saturated zone. Only the underground which is not saturated is taken into account for the unsaturated zone.
    • This amounts to the following formula: Amount of water in the unsaturated zone = ground water depth * WATER_STORAGE_PERCENTAGE * UNSATURATED_FRACTION.
    • For example, an underground terrain with a water storage of 25% and a ground water depth of 1 m and a configured unsaturated fraction of 0.25 will result in 0.0625 meter water in the unsaturated zone. (25% of 25% of the total volume of 1 m3)
