💧 How Water Works

Water is one of the core survival stats, alongside food and stamina. Managing hydration is critical — without it, your animal will weaken and eventually die.

🌦️ Weather Effects on Water

• Rain & Thunderstorms: Water sources refill during rainy weather, becoming full and fresh.

• Dry Weather: During droughts or dry seasons, water levels shrink and ponds may even dry out completely.

This system creates natural cycles where water is sometimes abundant and sometimes scarce, forcing players to adapt.

🥤 Drinking Water

• Approach a water source and use the drink action to refill your water bar.

• Drinking fully restores hydration, but staying nearby too long may attract predators.

✅ Summary
Water isn’t always guaranteed. Rain fills it, dry weather drains it — and without it, survival isn’t possible. Always keep an eye on your water bar and plan ahead.
