My biggest problem is when I try to make a sea fort the waves go through my walls.

Are you sure they aren't breaking over your walls or perhaps breaking around them? I've built a breakwater using walls before and it works fine.

They break over them? Guess I need taller walls.

hmm... I wonder if toady will implement a feature where certain parts of the day/year its high tide and other times its low tide. even enough to cause the sea to rise a couple z-levels.  That would be awesome and just think of the applications!

We might actually be tempted to build the Rattray Head lighthouse, or others like it.
