Terraria Overhaul/Flood



Floods are a weather phenomenon that start in any type of Rain. They most frequently appear in Autumn, as rain is more common and there is no evaporation or freezing. For seasons, see.

While they impose little permanent danger as the water evaporates in Summer and freezes in Winter, caution should still be exercised when going outside. Floods can be dangerous due to connecting with a flooded area, resulting in the affected water potentially spreading fire to trees or grass, and shocking the player. The player is also at risk of drowning in very heavy flooding unless they carry accessories related to minimizing breath loss underwater.

Ways to prevent or reduce flooding

 * Dig a hole to the Underworld or otherwise very deep underground.
 * Dig out a dam and wait for the water to evaporate. Do not make it out of flammable materials.
 * Make a roof and walls around the area you wish to protect from flooding.
