Water Hydration Boost 1.1.0

A simple mod that increases the amount of hydration that water items give you.

Why?

I felt I was drinking way more liquids to get hydrated than what was realistically needed. It shouldn't take two water bottles and an apple juice carton to feel hydrated. (At least not without a Death Stranding **** mechanic (3.9.0 maybe??? kanasmug)) Either way, that's a lot of liquid. I tried turning down the dehydration rate, but that made it so I wouldn't need to drink at all during a mid-length raid.


What?

This mod adjust the following values for the 0.6L Water Bottle and the Aquamari Bottle w/ Filter.

  • Increased hydration value for water bottles.
    • 100 for 0.6L Bottle (from 60). This will give you 100 points of hydration at Metabolism level 1.
    • 110 for Aquamari Bottle.
  • Reduced the Max Resource of both water bottles to 10, allowing you to drink the bottles in 1/10 increments instead of 1/60th.
  • Increased the foodUseTime of both water bottles from 3 to 15. It now takes a slightly longer time to drink. For example, drinking 1/10th of a water bottle will play the drinking animation for roughly the length of two "gulp" sound fx. (i.e. It takes two gulps to drink a tenth of a bottle).


I find this gives water a nice value boost over other drinks. It gives a soft counter to painkiller dehydration without messing with that whole system. All values can be tweaked in the config. Remember, nothing quenches you like water.

  • Version 1.1.0

    • Reduced hydration value for water bottles. Still higher than vanilla, but nothing crazy.
      • 100 for 0.6L Bottle. This will give you 100 points of hydration at Metabolism level 1.
      • 110 for Aquamari Bottle.
    • Reduced the Max Resource of both water bottles to 10, allowing you to drink the bottles in 1/10 increments instead of 1/60th.
    • Increased the foodUseTime of both water bottles from 3 to 15. It now takes a slightly longer time to drink. For example, drinking 1/10th of a water bottle will play the drinking animation for roughly the length of two "gulp" sound fx. (i.e. It takes two gulps to drink a tenth of a bottle).
  • Version 1.0.0

  • Not worth an update, but I would change Drink Time to 9 in the config.

  • How about a mod that reminds the player to get hydrated irl it would be fun kanasmug
