Thirst Was Taken 2

by Nightter

Thirst Was Taken 2 adds a thirst bar to survival, with water that has to be boiled or distilled before it is safe to drink.

What it does

Thirst drains as a player runs, jumps, mines and fights, and more quickly in hot biomes such as deserts and the Nether. Fire Resistance and Fire Protection slow the heat drain. Drinks and foods refill the bar, and a Quenched Buffer works like saturation: thirst drains from it first, and health regenerates only once it runs out. Below half thirst, food no longer restores health, and a bar at zero causes steady damage, while low thirst also blocks sprinting.

Clean water comes from boiling in the Hanging Pot over a lit campfire, the Copper Distiller, or a cauldron placed under open rain beneath a pointed dripstone. The Copper Distiller is a two-block still that turns sea water into pure water and burns furnace fuel to keep running. Thirst Was Taken 2 requires Fabric API. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, for game versions 1.20.1 – 26.3, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

Key features

  1. Thirst bar

    A thirst bar tracks hydration during survival and depletes with movement, combat and rest.

  2. Quenched buffer

    The buffer absorbs thirst loss before health is affected, similar to how saturation works.

  3. Boiling water

    Bottles, bowls, buckets, canteens and flasks can be boiled in a furnace or a Hanging Pot to make clean water.

  4. Copper Distiller

    A two-block still turns water and sea water into pure water using furnace fuel.

  5. Rain dripstone

    Cauldrons under open rain beneath a pointed dripstone fill with clean water automatically.

What the author says

Soups, stews, and drinks restore thirst. The Cooking Pot boils water Clean. The Nourishment effect pauses thirst depletion. Brews and soups restore thirst, less the stronger the drink. Water keeps its purity grade in the Keg, and nothing ferments from sea water.
