Description
Water Goes Bad
This mod makes the water still stored in sinks, baths, etc after the water shutoff become unsafe to drink after a customisable amount of time. Off-grid water containers, such as water dispensers, stored water containers, and player plumbed sinks are not affected.
This aims to make keeping track of water more engaging. In Vanilla, stored-up water leaves a near infinite supply of easy safe water even after the water shutoff, making keeping up with thirst trivial.
Water Drain
This mod also features water draining from the taps over time to add further urgency to securing a water source.
Filters
This also introduces the need to filter plumbed taps. You'll need to additionally craft and install a filter after plumbing a tap, unless the source has safe water (not rain).
Customisability
Sandbox variables allow you to customise how many days after the water shutoff the water becomes tainted (including instantly). The filtering and water drain features can be turned off entirely, and the rate of drain can be changed.

i am currently looking into updating this mod to work better in the latest versions of the game

My mod is working fine. Can you tell me how to make filters? I can't find it anywhere

Add a mod based on this mod that works in b42 with new fluid mechanics.

If the author wants to update their mod, I'm happy to help.

@Tyler the mod maker literally posted on the 20th of september.

This mod is broken and for now abandoned as said by the author, please unsub from this mod to avoid problems, thank you. :sothappy:

yeah we lost the tainted indicator because they moved the whole UI into java and i can't trick it anymore, it can probably be faked but my focus is elsewhere right now

Sooo...I messed about in debug and flipped the game to instant water shut off. Now it works perfectly (although there is no 'tainited' indicator on world fixtures). So...issue with the trigger maybe?

Unfortunately, doesn't seem to work for me as of Sept :( Great mod, otherwise (used it before build 42)

Incompatible with the Water Pipe and sprinklers aka plumbing mod. Plumbed houses will be tainted even when plumbed from a well.

Also, if you're using Lifestyles mod, make sure minimum water remaining stays above 5 or something or all toilets will become unusable, unless you can legit plumb them with a rain collector barrel.

there's been a few reports like this, seems like it's still working for some people but i'll look into it soon
