[B3.1] Water absent when exiting tunnel

I haven't experienced this bug before B3.1, but it's possible, that I didn't see it until now because we now have more possibilities to build water expanses:

When I leave a tunnel and there's water after the tunnel, the water is absent until I reach the tunnel exit block. Then the water suddenly is there (see the two pictures, before and after). It seems, the graphic engine doesn't bother with water during tunnel passages (because there is no water in tunnels, of course), but the time to resume water calculation comes to late, especially if you have a downwards street before the tunnel exit which allows a wider look ahead what's following after the tunnel exit.
This occurs with the new water expanses and the old water deep down in the canyon as well.

Which video quality, especially shader settings are you using? Would you mind post a screenshot of the advanced video options?

More water errors here http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... lit=+water

If I make a patch of water I see only the terrain change. The water will show up for the first time if I drive near it. After that first run it all works fine though.
