If I recall correctly, adding water to a mission requires you to save and restart the mission. I might be wrong, but I think thats required for some reason

Reloading is not needed. When you add the water it should be visible. When in doubt paste in a water block( manually in the .mis file) from the demo and adjust in the editor.
