Thirst Was Taken 2

Thirst and Quenched

• Thirst Bar: Depletes as you run, jump, mine, and fight.
• Quenched Buffer: Works like saturation. It drains first, and heals you once saturation runs out.
• Dehydration: Food stops healing below half thirst. Low thirst prevents sprinting, and empty thirst causes steady damage.
• Environment: Thirst drains a little even at rest. Hot biomes like deserts and the Nether deplete it faster. Fire Resistance and Fire Protection reduce heat drain.

Water Quality

Grade Common Sources Effects Dirty Swamps, stagnant pools Often causes Upset Stomach or Poisoning, worse on harder difficulties Murky Standard rivers, lakes, caves Can cause Upset Stomach or Poisoning Clean Mountain rivers, rain, boiled water Safe Pure Cold peaks, dripstone, distilled water Safe, with the biggest reserve Salty Oceans and beaches Cannot quench thirst; makes you Parched

Purification

• Boiling: Boil water bottles, bowls, buckets, canteens and flasks in a furnace to make them Clean, which is safe to drink.
• Hanging Pots: Hang a Copper or Iron Hanging Pot over a lit campfire to boil water Clean on its own.
• Copper Distiller: A two-block still and the way to Pure water, from any water, sea water included. It burns furnace fuel and hoppers can keep it running.
• Rain and Dripstone: Cauldrons placed under open rain or pointed dripstone automatically fill with clean water.

Early Game Gear and Drinking

• Terracotta Bowls: Mold clay into bowls and fire them in a furnace to scoop water early on.
• Waterskin: Holds 4 servings of water in a single slot. Filled water bowls stack to 3. Intelligently mixes water grades.
• Drink by Hand: Sneak and right-click any fresh water block to drink directly without a container.

Mid Game Gear

• Copper Canteen: Holds 4 servings. Hold it over a lit campfire to boil the water inside Clean.
• Iron Flask: Holds 6 servings and boils slower. Both also work in a furnace.

For Developers

Data Packs: Give any item a thirst value with one JSON file in data/<namespace>/thirstwastaken2/drinks/, no dependency needed:

{ "values": { "mymod:lemonade": { "thirst": 6, "quenched": 8 }, "mymod:iced_tea": { "thirst": 8, "quenched": 12 } } }

Java API: Read and change thirst, react to drinking and check water purity, on every loader and version:

// Salty snacks restore no thirst. ThirstEvents.DRINK.register((player, stack, drink) -> { if (stack.is(MyItems.SALTY_SNACK)) drink.cancel(); }); // Give a player a bottle of Pure water. player.addItem(ThirstApi.waterBottle(ThirstApi.maxPurity()));

See the data pack and Java API guides.
