Easiest way i found to get rid of this was make the = water brush the exact shape of the container holding it, then move all = the sides one space (not square, space) in from the sides of the = container. Its a hige pain in the ass if its a weird shaped pool or = something, but the water is close enough to the edge that the player = cant possibly notice.

give er a try... ya might just like = it
