Also, this shit would likely be busted in combat if the idea is just to prevent stamina gain while aggro'd. Part of the group aggros, other group uses whatever stamina gaining methods there are to circle around and fuck the person getting chased.

I like this idea, and I think an iteration of it could fit well in the game. Food/Water would be the modifiers on stamina regeneration rate. Would be nice to see willpower come into play, possibly letting you use a secondary stamina bar that would be under the normal stamina, kind of like how energy works. The bar would fill slower than normal stamina, and would need to be refilled before normal stamina can regen. This would bring willpower into the chasing scene as those with more willpower can possibly put on a final run to escape.

Sitting in a chair increases stamina regeneration, and tea does something with stamina, don't remember what or if it was changed.
Sitting on a chair doesn't work anymore.

About the idea it's easier than you tought, simply remove stamina ... do you know how usually stamina works in others games? ok like that ...
It's maybe just one thing that haven should do like others games.
Pretty much stamina will refill immediately (or almost, 5-10 sec or so ... like others games, or like the time it takes now drinking), so you don't have to wait, as long you have water and food in your body you will regen stamina, when parched, starving or overstuffed at lower rate ... and that's it.
Instead of drinking, stamina will replenish by itself ... lowering the water and food bar .... let's be honest, right now we have to drink a lot.
Make friends with the other crabs or try to escape the bucket.

Adding yet another meter with (almost) no means to replenish other than just waiting is the last thing this game needs. We already have so many of those.

I think we should add peeing and pooping to balance drinking and eating.
After drinking a bit you would need to go to the loo. You can take a piss in a special building or pee in the open.
The last option would attract a new NPC, the "pee-seeker" who would aggro when in line of sight. In order to build the special building you would need
a special resource and a special combat skill only obtainable for trolls on level 10. You would need to pee after ingesting 1,5 litres.

You have to poop after ingesting the equivalent of one bread. Same as peeing you can either poop in a super special building or in the open.
The last option would make you vulnerable to the "master of poo" which will enchant your most expensive item and make it into a special item:
"The poop".

Can I get a cape for this suggestion?

All I really wanted was

remove water
add resting

+resting time refills stam just as fast as water

removing the need for meta gaming water in pvp.
removing the need to drink a billion cups of water while building a base.
Removing the fact that water eats your hunger bar.

Sitting in a char or sleeping in a bed when you log off just allows you to have more energy once you come back and want to do stuff around your town/place.
