Triple Floodgate

Overview
The
Triple Floodgate is a tiered water-control building used to regulate flow between water tiles. It offers a fine-grained, continuous height setting that lets you let water over only when the level rises above a chosen threshold. It appears grouped with other floodgates and dams and is used wherever precise control of water movement is needed in irrigation, reservoirs, or defensive waterworks.
The gate's height can be set anywhere from 0 to 3 in increments of 0.05; water above the configured level will spill over the gate, while water at or below that level will be held back and will not percolate through the structure. This makes the
Triple Floodgate suitable for maintaining stable reservoir levels, gradual draining or filling of channels, and staging controlled releases.
Adjacent
Floodgates can be synchronized so they share the same height setting; this synchronization option is enabled by default. Use synchronization to ensure even flow across linked gates and to prevent uneven surges when a single large water body spans multiple gate tiles.
Practical notes:
- Small adjustments (the 0.05 step) let you fine-tune flow to match delicate irrigation needs or to keep water just beneath overflow points.
- Synchronize adjacent gates when you want uniform behavior across a dam or multi-tile spillway; disable it if you need staggered or stepped releases.
- Because the gate blocks percolation at or below its set level, it can act as an effective seal for reservoirs until you deliberately raise the threshold.
