land over water question

I have been exploring and I keep coming across land that has thin layer of ground over water and then water but some how its unenterable.
They look pretty strange its like the land is over the water and its next to void sim but you can see water.
Anyone know about land like this?

"Thin layer of of ground over water" sound like the usual prim island/beach common in water plots.

You say that "it" is "unenterable". Are you saying that *both* the land and the water beneath are unenterable? Does this "land" appear to be in the void?

I suspect that what you might be looking at is prims that have been moved into the void. If the root prom of an object is in buildable land, then the other prims of the object can be in a void area. As I remember from a quick test, the prims of the object can extend beyond the 10 metre "look into" band beyond the sim containing the root prim.

there is water under all land. If you are at the edge of a sim and standing on land, you can cam out into the 'void' and look from 'outside' and you can see the land and the water underneath it. Land is a mesh that is 'paper-thin' with empty nothing underneath it. You can also disable camera constraints and look underground, you will see water down there even right in the middle of a continent. You can't get to it as you can't go through land, but the water is there regardless.

I was just curious if water eventually goes away and what it was I just never noticed anything like that until last night.
Can you Terraform it to go down to water level?
I saw some land for sale for 5k for 512m2 but if water goes away it might not be worth it.
It not prims just seems like thin land layer, I got my camera settings pretty low.
It just seemed strange to see this thin land over water with drop off area that cannot be entered.
I assume it was just void that appears to be a part of Linden Sea
Thanks

That's not really water next to your plot. It's void. It may go away if LL decides to plop another region there.
However, if you can see the water from the sim edge on your plot, that will always be there, and you can probably terraform down to it if it's RIGHT below the surface. (within a few meters)

Ok. I misinterpreted some of it

If you cam under the land surface, you do indeed appear to see a thin layer with a void underneath. It's just the way the rendering works.

Just to be definitive, can you provide a SLurl or just give the sim and coordinates please?

Linden water does not 'disappear'. Well.OK it does sometimes on PIs that I've seen sometimes due to a long-standing bug, but it comes back after a chicken has been sacrificed in the correct manner.

Won't somebody think of the poor prim chickens??!?

Make a long object. Sit on the end of it. rotate the object so that the center is still just above ground but the end you are sitting on is below ground.

Feel free to look around (Hey, you can see up her dress.)

I believe FD is referring to the EDGE of a sim where you can see "Below" the ground, and the Plane of Water is still Visible.
A Hill that comes up to the edge of a Sim Looks Like a Thin layer of land and the water level below it IS Visible, But that Space below the land it Treated by the Server as a Solid mass Not an Airspace. You would not be able to access it.
