Water Tank System

Fill Rate

The tank fills passively at 2 liters per real hour while the pump is powered. This means it takes approximately 25 real hours to fill the 50L tank from empty. The fill rate is constant and does not depend on the number of players or in-game time acceleration.

Water Consumption

Action Water Used
Drink (per sip)0.25 L
Fill Container (per cycle)0.5 L
Wash Hands0.5 L

Tank HUD Indicator

When interacting with the pump, a color-coded bar displays the tank status:

  • Blue: Clean water available
  • Brown-green: River water (unfiltered)
  • Grey: Tank empty

Upgrade Recipe

To upgrade a standard Water Pump to T2:

  • Hammer
  • 5x Metal Plate
  • 20x Nails
  • Crafting Time: 8 seconds

Key Benefits

  • Emergency water access during power outages — the tank retains stored water
  • GasMask_Filter slot enables water purification
  • With 0.25L per sip, a full 50L tank provides up to 200 drinks without power
  • Passive filling requires no player interaction — just keep the pump powered

Tips

  • Upgrade as early as possible to start accumulating the water reserve
  • At 2L/hour, keep the pump powered overnight to gain a significant buffer
  • Always install a GasMask_Filter for clean water in the tank
  • A full tank provides roughly 200 sips or 100 container fills as emergency backup
