Thirst Was No More
by ptran779dev
Thirst Was No More, a Forge mod for 1.20.1, makes players drink water automatically from worn containers, so survival with thirst needs less manual chugging.
What it does
Wearable water containers, such as a bottle strap or camel packs, can sip hydration on their own when a player becomes thirsty. Container capacity and drink speed can be adjusted in the config files, and the mod can be paired with the Thirst Taken mechanics it extends.
The mod is built for survival, hardcore and desert modpacks where water management is a constant chore, and it aims to keep the thirst system from demanding micromanagement. It requires Thirst Was Taken, and the optional Curios API lets containers be worn in curio slots. Recipes can be viewed in JEI and the Recipe Book.
Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 only, with version 2.0.0 as the latest, released on 2026-05-01. The code is all rights reserved and is not open source.
