I've been playing a few hours now. Died the first few spawns due to dehydration. Simply didn't find any drinks but on this spawn found a water bottle and filled at a water pump. I had no matches or axe so I couldn't purify the water but it was drink or die. I drank, got sick but managed to find antibiotics.

The thirst rate still seems off but it's a critical aspect of the survival feeling in game so we'll see how it feels later in the game when I don't have to run everywhere (ie, have a car).

Speaking of which: From my faded memory there is a line that relates Water_Source to certain objects. In A2 there are two types of "Land_Water_source" in the shape of an hand pump - they look at first glance identical but one has the pump assembly in the center of the housing, the other is offset. They can both be used to fill water bottles but the one with the pump in the middle can be drank directly from (the "drink" dialogue comes up) but on the other you can't; could you make both of these types function the same way? (if you want to see what I mean in game, head to Berezino; one pump is behind the hospital and there's the different style behind the pub/cafe on the corner).

Anyway, enjoying the over all feel of the game, really like the Points Of Interest (POI) that you've added. Would like to see more actually! Also like the extra content from 1.8.8 :) Is there a journal or diary which details the character and contains the recipes for some of this new stuff now spawning?

I've been noticing some heat seeker rockets on the dead AI (it only seems to be the AI that actually are the driver/pilots of vehicles) and I'm sure hope you are teasing us that we'll find a launcher for these.... the helicopters are incredibly aggressive and it would be nice to level the playing field. Or least some Big Boy guns like the light machine guns (M249 SAW or the Mk48).

Thank you Olvi82, it's a great mod :)

I'm off, have some zeds to kill.... :)
