Bigger water container

Post by shubla »

Currently we have waterskins, and waterflasks which both fit in your inventory. (Kuksas etc. are not counted as they are quite small)
Waterskin is only 2x1 and waterflask is 1x1.
I think that we need bigger containers for water that could be carried in the inventory.
Something like 4x4 or maybe 6x4, with capacity per tile same similar to waterflask or waterskin.
Could be made from hard leather.

Its most annoying to refill these 1x1 waterflasks when you carry a lot of them.

So far, you can place waterskin into your belt so it's 1x1 (dunno if intended).
Dunno how many slots have troll belt now, but such thing loaded with waterskins would be like barrel around you :D

made right click a belt with bucket could refill all water container in it would be a better idea.we don't really need mass container in inventory.

Problem is that I dont have a troll belt
Even if I had one, it takes ages to fill the containers, which is the main reason behind this suggestion.
There is really no reason why devs would not add some 3 x 3 water container or something of similar size.
Perhaps that container would not fit in belt, only in Inventory.

Troll belt would still be advantageous because waterskins in it dont take inventory space.

Bucket is entirely different thing than what I am suggesting.
Why should I carry 9 waterflasks, which are annoying to fill, when I could have just 1 big water container?
I think adding 1 bigger water container would be very reasonable.


And as I said earlier, troll belt won't fix this, you still have to refill them slowly one by one.

so like 5-6 years ago i saw some screenshots of ppl with 4 buckets in their inventory, if i remember it correctly

and you suggest same thing - to make one big container for water (like 4x4) witch carry more water (about 10.0 L) and it can be pocketable

same thing that was before ! buckets in inventory

I did not suggest 10 liters of water.
I said something similar to waterflasks or waterskins.
Currently you can carry 4 waterflasks to get 8 liters of water.
The bigger container woud give same, or less, water per inventory tile.
I also said that it may not fit in your toolbelt.

Buckets also allow you to carry various other liquids and substances than just water.

Maybe we can hollow out pumpkin and dry it on herbalist table. Then it can be treated with wax for waterproofing and used as big water container. Cannot go on belt.
