What about Purified Water? Can you make it as an addition to this mod? Maybe Ice-Cold Purified Water too for those of us that don't like drinking soda or beer....
Sometimes I can't get my thoughts into a format that everyone else can understand. No, there is no version 2C (no DLC, all drinks) or 2E (all DLC, all drinks - at least that's how I think I wanted it to be), and to tell the truth, I forgot how I made this mod and don't even have Fallout 4 installed anymore. Yeah, this mod is abandonware now.
Soda or beer does not cause any actual dehydration. You could probably live few years with whiskey if you had no water. Back in the good old days you needed to leave the city to drink non-alcoholic water without dying of cholera or plague.
Thing about beer induced dehydration is that it is the water in it that causes it. If you drink 2 gallons of water -- you die. If you drink 2 gallons of beer you probably get a hangover. Drinking water dilutes the electrolytes in your body. When your sodium levels are low enough, drinking more water will just make you pee, cause edema and leave you thirsty. If you drink a beer with food, it is exactly as hydrating as any other water source in the universe. Same goes for soda. If you are dehydrated after drinking several cans of it, your dehydration is probably not caused by lack of water.. or soda... or beer.
Dehydration is not the same thing as lack water. It is pretty common to be dehydrated and have excess water in you at the same time. Also, hangover is not mostly dehydration... it can be... sometimes... for some people... it's complicated... also it's not cause it just means feeling like s*** after drinking copious amounts of poison.
You've probably been asked before, but I just wanted to check... Can I only download one file and pick the one that best suits me, or are these mods supposed to work together in tandem? I have Far Harbor, not Nuka World. I'm just wondering if the Far Harbor mod includes the vanilla drinks as well or if it's supposed to be used in addition with the vanilla mod. Hope my question makes sense. Thanks!
You would choose either 2A or 2B depending on if you want only Ice Cold drinks to hydrate or all drinks to hydrate you. And you really should own all the DLC, not because you have to play them, but so you don't have any issues with mods. DON'T use more than one at once. Your game will probably crash.
I was just thinking this myself, of course you could always just put them in The Fridge. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/search/ you know, for immersion and all.... :)
I am somewhat confused by all this files. So if I have both dlc what file I need for Nuka-world original colas? Are those included somewhere? I see only file for iced colas. Help?
Nah, it's fine. I'll just use the 2F file. Eather way, thanks for mod. Great mod idea! Dunno what logic Beshesda had to not have soda count as a drink. Makes game very limited in terms of what you can drink to hydrate.
Yeah dude! I mean, most drinks have certain percentages of water in them. They have other substances in them, too, but water is typically a main ingredient for semisolid ingestibles, like sauce.
How far is too far when going for realism? NukaCola has lots of sugar so shouldnt it also count toward food or at least act like a food suppressant (since it's nutritionally unvaried) like it does for sleep? You can live for a year on softdrink alone IRL... you get scurvy n stuff though. ... BTW, whiskey n stuff can hydrate you but your liver will suffer and you will get the most epic hangovers as your brain tries to cope. You will start experiencing organ failure pretty quickly if you dont recieve water from your food in addition... Koalas dont need to drink water since they can get it from leaves!

I'm sorry to ask, it's just that, honestly, I can't tell just from what you have written on the files page.
Please take care everyone, and stay safe & healthy in these troubled times.
