A well is a man-made structure tunneling down an aquifer for the purpose of extracting water.
As of build 41, wells can only be found only outside of the cities. There are several known wells:
- The first is located at a farm to the northwest of Muldraugh.
- The second is located at the farm directly south of the first well.
- The third is located at the cabin in the western woods, north of McCoy Logging Co..
Uses
Unless changed in the sandbox the city's water supply will shut down after 0-30 in-game days, and the water appliances found throughout Knox Country will be limited to whatever remains inside their reservoirs. From that point forward survivors must rely on either wells, rain, natural bodies of water, or stockpiled and looted beverages. As of Build 41, the well provides an unlimited amount of water without drying up or freezing, offering a limitless supply of water for survivors who choose to base nearby.
Plumbing
The introduction of the plumbing mechanic offers a reliable source of water rivaling the utility of wells, depending on a survivor's individual play style.
Plumbing is currently unable to connect to wells, however a full rain barrel easily provides 400 units of water that can easily supply a survivor until the next rainfall. Additionally, the survivor can connect up to 8 rain barrels to a bathtub the floor below for the use of as a reservoir. During the warmer months it can be difficult to imagine needing the unlimited water a well provides, however the lack of rain in the winter can make the well an excellent source of water during the colder months.
