UE1 - UT Connecting Waterzones?

[rmcollins3]

I don't recall if there is a way to do this or not, but can waterzones of different shapes be connected together somehow, or does it have to be just one big waterzone?

For example, if I have water in one area of a map that I want to connect to water in another area further away. But the entry point to the water in the far away part is higher than the entry point of the closer one such that it would extend to other parts of the map where I don't want water.

Hopefully this makes sense. I tried just building them separately and connecting them, but of course it's not liking it.

Blue is where water should be, but I don't want it to be where the red arrow is.

You can separate the areas using an invisible ZonePortal sheet so that the WaterZoneInfo won't affect the part you don't want water on.

So yeah I'm pretty much an idiot and didn't realize I could just use sheets instead of cubes for my waterzones. Sheet on one pool, sheet on the other, wz in between, viola. Still a noob in some areas I guess. At least it's purty so far...

You can also create sheets in the 2d shape editor if you don't want to be limited to square sheets

Thanks, idk what I was thinking and not sure why I didn't realize I could just place a sheet over each pool. For some reason I thought it had to be a big cube and cover all the zones. I got it working now just fine.
