📋 About This Mod

One more mod to fill all those empty bottles with water! This is directly extracted (and improved) from my old Animated Food Drinks and Chems with Empty Things and Bottled Water Modules mod.

DESCRIPTION:

The main idea is to come up with a bottle filling mod that doesn't make the game too easy. Thus, the water bottles obtained are not those of vanilla game but are new items. Their value is low in order to prevent you from getting rich too quickly, their weight is more than vanilla water bottles (1. 5x by default), the dehydration restoration is lower, the radiations from non-purified water bottles more important. The bottles can't be used in recipes (outside purification one) involving water to avoid making those too easy. The goal isn't to give you infinite Rushing Water...

  • []Never Pure: this option forces pure water source to result in dirty water bottles. Indeed, the main problem with bottle filling mods is, in addition to unbalancing the game economy, making access to pure water extremely easy. Fallout New Vegas is full of pure water sources.

      • []No Health Regen: simply remove health regeneration from handbottled water. Use only in Hardcore mode.
        • []Refinement: allows you to improve the quality of the mod's water bottles in the inventory if the source is better.
          • []Purified Recipe: this simple option adds a recipe allowing the purification of handbottled water at the campfire, requiring the same ingredients as the vanilla recipe for the vanilla water bottles.

            []Weight multiplier: allows you to adjust the weight of the new bottles of the mod. Making th
