Parsama 0 Posted December 27, 2018 hi, someone can explain to me how I can fill a barrel of water or stone water reservoar?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jasper 14 Posted December 27, 2018 The easiest method is to just let them collect rainwater. Hadn't quite figured out how to extract it from the ground via a well yet but I just set up a few barrels to drink from and the water reservoir's to irrigate crops.

Parsama 0 Posted December 28, 2018 I understand that the water reservoir repairs the crops using pipes, but I will play and I have lost 24 hours, I have not seen rain yet ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boomervoncannon 1,541 Posted December 28, 2018 If you find a freshwater source nearby, you can fill the barrels by filling waterskins, then placing them in the barrels inventory. Once you do so, right click on the skin and select the option to fill barrel, then remove the skin. A barrel will hold about 5 skins worth iirc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt Adonis 3 Posted December 28, 2018 Water barrels are filled with a water skin and the water skin is filled by standing in fresh water not salt water and mousing over the water skin in inventory and hitting E key, to fill the barrel go in to barrel inventory and place the water skin then mouse over water skin in the barrel inventory and hit E key and it moves the water in to the barrel from the skin.

Coggage 239 Posted December 28, 2018 Rain barrels will take rainwater, but I think I've seen rain once in about 30 hours of play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The problem is, some areas like the desert areas never have rain, ever. There needs to be water sources or a well to add a well to get water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CamsterAu 16 Posted December 28, 2018 I don't see a reason too, not all islands are habitable. It would be nice to see a way to filter saltwater into freshwater, maybe boiling and condensing to get salt and fresh water Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Loni 32 Posted December 28, 2018 I am on a tropical island and it has rained once in like 4 days of game time. Its no very often, but if it rains it will the barrel with enough water to last easily till the next rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
