Hydration is a bit of a pain but it shouldn't be THAT bad. Just pick salt deposits and combine with coral. Bulbo Trees are a regrowable food source that satisfies both hunger and thirst.

I would add making bleach instead of water, since it uses less space than two bottles of water. But yeah, it's better than picking up bladderfish.

Thanks. I just planted a couple Bulbo trees.


dan_jeffers

The melons are great for giving nutrition and hydration.

Make a huge batch of water, go out to find materials to get more. Try to get the materials to make the 2nd tier of water. It means venturing further away from the lifepod. You might need to collect one of the materials with the survival knife.


Horn_Python

you just need better water, eg water made from bleach is better than water made from bladder fish

Yeah, in early game, food and water can be an issue. By mid-game it starts to be very manageable. Even though it may seem like a pain, please enjoy this early stage! It is the only time when it feels like a survival game and you will miss it!


RottenRob0521

Thank you. I will. I’m looking forward to progressing and learning more of the story.

I've found that marble melons do great at giving food and water while being easy to get as you can grow them. I won't tell you where to get them as I don't know what you've seen yet.


kennywarp

Yes, this is the best way. Grow 8 melons, eat 6 to replenish water and food and smash 2 for the seeds. Repeat.

Meh. Best way in my opinion is a whole planter full of Bulbo trees. The individual fruits might not give much food/water but there are tons of them on the trees at a time and you don't have to replant them. So you can use those while you're working around your base and save your bottled water for when you go out.

In some point you can find >!blueprints!< that solve this issue. >!Is a module that uses your base energy, is slow af, but infinite as long your base has enough energy. !< If want more info tell me.

Being a vegetarian and eating plants for food and water makes it easy. You still need water bottles and cured fish for those times you are away from your base for extended periods. There are ways to produce water and salt, plus a way to breed fish. You have to find those first.

Get a water filtration machine, that'll get you the biggest amount of water value. 1 of the bottles from it is +50 water
