I think it was established in an earlier discussion, that it is not possible to determine the water level, but obviously to see water, the level you set has to higher than the land. I had been working on -15 for the land under the sea and -9 for the water level - numbers picked totally arbitrarily - and of course there were some changes up-river.
Anyhow, all was going well - I thought I had more or less finished landscaping and was concentrating on my routes, when I noticed that there appeared to be land, in fact a long cliff, at the edges of my ocean.
With trial and error, I have finally set my sea level to 2. It is not totally satisfactory as the sea still appears to slope upwards at the edges, but it isn't too noticeable at a distance. I must now check how much land has been inundated - shouldn't be too bad, as most of my coastal land was at 5 because, under the old system, where we either had water or not and couldn't alter the levels, I found it started to "bleed" into the land at anything below 3.
Have other people noticed the "sea cliff"? How have you handled it?
