Current Work: Water

More information and screenshot after the break.

Just a small post to talk about what's currently being worked on and that would be water.

Water was started about just over a day ago and a basic form is now implemented in the game.

The water is a block just like Dirt, Moss and any of the other block types, however water blocks are being programmed to look to there surrounding blocks to spread out and cover the map.

There coming along quite well and flow correctly to some extent, sometimes they stop flowing after 3 to 4 blocks which is what I'm currently trying to fix. Other then that its doing what it should be doing at this time.

After the current bug is fixed, I want to try add some more rules to water so it acts a bit smarter. Then I'm thinking of adding a different look if its at edges (flowing over) and maybe animating the water itself... these are maybes for now its all on getting it to move correctly.

Here is a screenshot of a waterfall that formed in testing earlier today.
