I am looking for help creating a water system. It will be like an aquifer. The picture attached will explain what I am trying to do but I will also write out what I am trying to do.

The first aqueduct in the system must be built near a water supply or another aqueduct. You build on this so you can build farms away from the water. Each aqueduct can be destroyed cutting off the water.

The water can only travel in one direction so that if the aqueduct is destroy the water remaining in the other ones continues on down the line so you might not notice the destroyed aqueduct for awhile. If anyone can help me with this please post here.

What you have to use is a recursive structure that continuously cycles through the aqueducts linking to the water, and then finding the aqueducts linked to those. That way, any aqueducts that aren't linked aren't selected, and then it's easy to find which farms are in proximity to a linked aqueduct.
