Animating "water" ; changing shape not animating

[Trucker_Pete]

Hi , Was trying to animate my Uncles Perpetual motion machines …

I adjusted the Alpha of the water volume in the bottum machine to get some transparent effect … tips for watery improements welcome …

I tried to change water volume in different frames by moving verts in edit mode but the shape of the water cube always reverts back to the last change of the shape … not sure if theres a fix ?

Not sure if I can just use water simulations but that probably requires quite a bit of learning … or perhaps not ?

• Do you have an old keyframe somewhere?
• If you move some verts, try to use shape keys for this. Shape (keys) can be animated. Not verts.
