Making Salt Water

by **neoblackheart** » Mon Jan 19, 2026 5:52 am

I was looking the still and had a thought. Why can't we make salt water? I figure we could use mined rock salt or even ground salt to turn water into Salt water.

You have to be honest bros.
Give a reason why you want this.

You want to make high q soap clay easily

Such larpy things might bloat industry requirements in a crazy way.

I was more thinking of a way to spiral water quality actually.

Get q30 water Mix Q100 salt and it turns to q65 salt water. Then Use the Salt Water in a Still to make water so whatever the formula for saltwater and still is to get higher q water which gets higher q saltwater.

The effects of this would be pretty crazy tbh. Spiraling water up with q300 rock salt would invalidate wells and make some insane soap clay

...which would be a BAD THING.

You have to make the conclusion nowadays. Finish your thought. Don't count on people to be able to deduce it themselves.

I'm not sure if it would " invalidate wells" as it's a lot more work, sure you would get much higher Q water, but not enough quantity to be using it on every leather tanning tub, or boiled odd you cook.

This makes sense. I have water and salt, but to get salt water I have to run to the sea or ocean.

And to avoid spiraling, you can introduce a hard cap based on water quality and a soft cap based on salt quality:
If you have 100 quality water and 100 quality salt, you'll get 100 quality salt water.
If you have 20 quality water and 100 quality salt, you'll get 20 quality salt water.
If you have 100 quality water and 20 quality salt, you'll get 60 quality salt water.

Maybe if the rocks salt does not effect the quality of the salt water.
Else this would just make people spiral water until it reaches the quality of the rock salt, by distilling it, adding rock salt, and distilling it again over and over.
