Ive dealt with these water pump puzzles before and theyre pretty straightforward once you get the hang of it. The main thing to remember is that water needs to flow continuously from start to finish, and youll need to rotate those pipes until everything lines up just right. From my experience, its best to start from the outer sections and work your way in, since that makes it easier to spot where the water should go.

When youre at caravan town, youll see this well setup with three pipe segments that need connecting. Getting the bottom pipe lined up with the water spout is crucial, and youll need to pump it four times to get it working properly. Pretty satisfying when you hear that water flowing!

The utopia docks puzzle is a bit trickier, but dont let that intimidate you. Youve got these three broken hose sections to deal with, and each one has this circular cage thing you need to rotate. What worked for me was standing between the sections to get a better view of how they should connect. Once you get it right, youll snag yourself a carbon dioxide canister and an entrance key, which come in really handy later on.

Tip: if youre struggling with any section, remember that each pipe only fits one way - so if somethings not working, just keep rotating until you see the water flowing smoothly. Trust me, youll know when youve got it right!
