Dehydration
by Globox1997
Dehydration adds a thirst meter to survival play, so players must drink water to stay healthy, much as they eat food.
What it does
Thirst works like hunger: a player's hydration drops over time and has to be refilled to stay healthy. A bonus chest can be generated in new worlds to make the early game easier. Cloth Config API and Fabric API are required, and NeMuelch needs this mod to run. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, runs on the client and server, and has files for Fabric covering 1.19.2 – 1.21.1.
Key features
Thirst meter
A hydration value drains over time and must be restored by drinking, similar to the food bar.
Bonus chest
An optional chest generates during world creation, giving players early supplies to find water and food.
Water sources
Players refill the meter at water sources in the world, so finding water becomes part of exploration.
