Right. But I am pretty sure they showed water in a blogpost and they had the button for it (way after WA got canceled) in the creator.

Just launched the Worlds Adrift version to check. You are correct that there's a button/submenu for water, but it just says it's considered a preview and doesn't actually do anything.

What is the story with water? Is it going into the game or what? - like, I understood why it wasn't with WA, but now?

Вода как украшение острова, как текстура..... может быть разработчики это сделают. Вода как элемент с физическими свойствами, чтобы можно было плыть или утолить жажду.... вероятность очень низкая.

Water as an island decoration, as a texture..... maybe the developers will do it. Water as an element with physical properties so that you can swim or quench your thirst.... the probability is very low.

I would like to be able to hide entrances, say there's' two open sarcophagus's, both filled with stagnant water, when you solve the puzzle the door starts to open in one and the water drains away. Mainly for aesthetics though, so yeah :P

Water in editor would be pretty easy. Just a cube volume. If they want to limit depth of water simply limit the Z axis and rotation of the volume...

There was water in the editor and it was usable in playtest, not just a decoration.
One of my first maps had a body of water and I made it so you had to dive in to acitvate a databank hidden under a wooden pier.
There was also specific elements to go in it too, such as algae and waterlilies, and the preview character had all necessary swimming animations. So maybe it was a test feature, but everything was well in place, and I hope it gets eventually implemented to Lost Skies along with pretty waterfalls to place on maps.
