Allow Developers to Change Direction of Water for Realism

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to create realistic bodies of water because the direction that the water waves travel cannot be changed.


This feature has been requested many times, and can be seen here, here, here, here, here, and here.
Apparently it used to exist as a feature but has since been removed.

Other issues with water realism can be seen here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here, not to mention the many other posts I did not link (of which I will not touch on but should still be fixed).

I am making a showcase that includes a river and I would like to make the water flow away from the waterfall.

I don’t want the water to flow towards the riverbanks or have to re-do all my progress.


If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I would be able to create more realistic water movement.
