  • A guide on how to setup your own purified water farm! Setting up a successful purified water farm will give you purified water overtime that you can sell to vendors for bottle caps, or have a couple as a healing item.
    Note: This is my first actual commentary, so please bare with me :P. I couldn't understand myself on some words I said, so I just said "fuck it" and added in subtitles.

    en no achiements, so now i redo it, chose melee build, i wonder how those big things will go with this,
    but i made 6 prof water, made a trader, thought i get it from there, bc i pauze vids when i think i saw enough, trader sold dirty water, no loss there bc i needed it allot as well,
    seemd it ended up in my build craft station..
    now.. here it comes.. i made poision spikes, leved me up quick and money was doable,
    now i get the water, but much that doesnt involve lvl ing up

      I had a bug(?) that made it so that if I didn't take out all units of Purified Water from my workbench each production cycle it wouldn't produce any more for some reason.
      I just made a cooler right next to my bench to place the water into and it solved the issue.
      I also read on an old forum post that apparently the game checks for all consumable liquids (alcohol, soups, dirty water, Nuka Cola) and that if too many are in the workbench that the games robot brain gets overloaded and sometimes doesn't propagate the Purified Water it's supposed to, but I'm not sure how true that actually is. Even so, I'm not gonna risk missing out on 250 PW each cycle, so I moved them into a separate container.

    It's slow AF selling this shit once you actually farm a ton of water. It feels like I'm sitting on a fuck load of coke without the means to actually move to the stuff since each vendor even after investing in their stores only has around a 1000 caps to sell shit to. Not only that, I thought hey why not build some of my own stores. Problem is, you cannot have duplicate stores i.e two general stores as they share the caps it may not seem so but they do. Therefore more than one type of store is useless unless you're trying to increase happiness.

To put it into easier terms be more enthusiastic don't say things like "if I can be fucked" that makes it look like you don't want to be there.
