I followed the adding water tutorial in the FAQ section, and it added the water fine but the water refuses to drown you when you fall into it and stay there. What's the fix for this? Some sort of death region?

taht's really wierd, when you fall into water, it should automaticly start killing you. You could add a dammage region, though. that would have the same effect.

I know theres a command in the odf that disallows drowning, so if you have a custom side is that on? Yes you could easily create a damage region.

Does it matter if you don't fall into it but walk into the side of it?

Explaination: Just to try it out, I made a blank map and put a block of Kashyyyk water in the middle ten meters high. I walk into it (not from the top, from the side) and the screen starts flashing red, but I don't die.

How would you go around setting up a damage region? I know how to put in death regions; but those kill you right away.

I have no custom side.

EDIT - I have solved it!

Apparently, all I needed to do was to not give myself infinite health via fake consol everytime I played it.

lololololol
