Hi Tynan!
I'm a fan of your game. Thank you very much for developing and adding new mechanics, animations, customization, quests, etc.
I really miss an update that makes water an important resource.
We already have pollution mechanics, but the colonists are always clean for some reason. We have rain that can extinguish fires, but the colonists do not collect water and do not use it. In a game where there is so much survival, water is not a valuable resource and it has always frustrated me.
It would be great to add a hygiene indicator.
It would be great to collect water and use it.
The rivers seem lifeless. No fish. Which is also sad, because it is source of food.
For the oceans, content could also be added (marine expeditions, marine technology).
Hope you have plans for the water!
thank you very much for this game,
Vitaly
If you are looking to add some of these mechanics to the game yourself, there are several mods that provide them.
Fish, Cleanliness, Bathing, etc.
I have not seen anything that makes water a resource, though.
I've definitely played a mod that had bottled water, but maybe not used in any crafting recipes, only for drinking.
