* Weir width affects both the volume of water flowing across the weir and the number of grid cells on either side that permit this flow. The greater the weir's width, the more cells are considered to be part of the entry- and exitside of the weir.

* The [[Weir dam multiplier (Water Overlay)|Weir dam multiplier]] attribute of a [[Water Overlay]] controls to what width and height the weir is raised to block the natural flow of water in a waterway.
* The [[Weir dam multiplier (Water Overlay)|Weir dam multiplier]] attribute of a [[Water Overlay]] controls the width of the generated dam that blocks the natural flow of water in a waterway.

Notes

Relation between Weir width, Weir height, Weir dam multiplier and elevation adjustments.
  • Weir width affects both the volume of water flowing across the weir and the number of grid cells on either side that permit this flow. The greater the weir's width, the more cells are considered to be part of the entry- and exitside of the weir.
  • The number of cells on the entry and exit sides depends on the WEIR_WIDTH attribute, limited by a maximum of 25m.
  • The Weir dam multiplier attribute of a Water Overlay controls the width of the generated dam that blocks the natural flow of water in a waterway.
