Lets talk about water

Question

Dear all;

I've been lucky enough to survive currently on my 5th day, I have no issues with the current availability of water etc..

I was thinking why you can't a couple of things;

  1. Wash hands in ponds, streams and water pumps
  2. Why you can't fill cooking pots up with rain water

Just a couple of points, what you guys think?

Kind Rgds.

/agree

 

The most annoying thing about this is when my character washes his hands using my bottled water and use a quarter of the bottle, bloody pain in the ass.

 

Plus.. I like having bloody hands, from all of my victims  the chickens I kill.

Both should normally be possible, washing hands of course only when your hands are bloody. The missing options will be added.

I've tried no option to do either, obviously when hands are dirty.

I've also found some streams, for example the one N/W of Military AirField, can't fill bottles or cooking pots up with water. Could this be down to slots free or weight, or even the depth of water, if the latter I've tried in knee high water, still no joy?

100% you can wash hands in ponds etc, ive done it. Press RT one time for that option (of course, wih bloody hands).

As for rain water in cooking pots;  i wssnt sure that you could collect rain water but i know 100% you can fill up cookig pots in ponds or wells etc
