This is Submerged Sanctuary, a standard-sized flooded fantasy map with a warm climate, overall sunny weather, and temperatures around 20–30 degrees all year long.
When you start your game, there is only one piece of land and one selling point available for you to use.
You need to use the trigger at the water pump on your land to lower the water level and unlock more selling points, production, and farmlands.
The water level takes 24 in-game hours to reach its endpoint. The costs will be $1000 credits per in-game minute; this amount increases to $2000 when you unlock the fourth checkpoint on normal difficulty.
You can set the difficulty level with left shift + z or change the controls in the settings menu.
When you activate the pump, you can just let it run until it reaches its checkpoints or shut it off whenever you need to.
The waterplane will respond to in-game time — the faster your time, the faster the water level goes down.
There is a grain transport system on the map for when your machines can't make it up the hills fully loaded.

Known non-game/save-breaking bugs:
When you teleport out or switch to a vehicle while standing in the water pump trigger, the drain water action will not deregister and you will not be able to use any other triggers.
Just walk in and out of the water pump trigger zone, it will deregister correctly and you will be able to use other triggers again.
When the pump is running, do not sell anything — this may result in the loss of credits.
This map will not be released for console due to its water level system being implemented in Lua script, which isn't supported and the map would lose its essence without it.
This is my first map, hope you like it!
