a package—all the appropriate textures that make the water look and move like
water have been attached to the shader where they belong, and the script that

Step 5:
Place the water in the scene. From the Project panel, drag one of
the Daylight waters into the scene view (

).
Why?
Yes, the water could have been placed by dragging from the Project panel
to the Hierarchy panel. However, by dragging directly into the scene, the
water can be roughly positioned within the space. The results, however,
are the same as dragging to the Hierarchy panel.
Step 6:
Move and scale the water to approximate

is to make the water big enough so the edge cannot be seen inside the
tunnel, and expands out past the edges of the dock enough so the edge is
