Find water and manage containers

Quick answer

Look for containers with actual water at roadside stops. Keep a drinking reserve, then cover cooling and farming needs.

Search and transfer

Search the starting area, shelves and containers inside buildings. A bottle or jug can be empty, so inspect its liquid reading. Hold the supplying container, target the receiver and use Transfer; watch the two levels to confirm the direction.

Three separate demands

  • Carry drinking water for the next trip and the walk back.
  • Check radiator liquid before departure.
  • Water plants only after immediate travel needs are covered.

No universal water coordinate

Generated worlds change where supplies occur. If a stop is empty, continue with a planned route rather than searching the same shelf indefinitely. Read liquid contents before pouring: a container shape alone does not establish what it holds.
