Need help with editing.
It's pretty easy, just find some river tile that doesn't have any hardness and put a whole lot of hard invisible objects around it. Then, when you actually get the ability to walk on water, you can get the hardness of the objects to disappear, by using a whole lot of script commands. Ummm...maybe it's not so easy after all...
In the editor, while in tile editing mode, pressing H will get you to hardness editing mode which allows you to edit the default hardness of tiles. C(copy) copies a tile and S(stamp) pastes it. ESCAPE escapes the hardness editing mode. You can also toggle through the hard tiles with two buttons, but these vary depending on which country your keyboard is set to. Å and ` for me, being a Finn.
It's rather easy to actually create a land bridge over water, copy and stamp every tile and then redraw the landscape, removing the bridge in normal tile editing mode.

I'll explain it step by step for you. assuming you've got the land and water next to eachother with a kinda bank. Then press H (Assuming you have WinDinkEdit) to go into hardness mode. Now press E to bring up all the hardness thingys. Now find one that's just a straight line on the top or bottom.
Click it, then paste it where you want the top, or bottom of the bit Dink walks on to be. Now go up about a square or two and stamp it along there. Finally, click on a non-hard tile and press C to copy, then click on the edge of the land where it is hard and you want Dink to walk over and press S to stamp there so Dink can walk on the water. Oooh, scary!
