ElDudorino Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 I've found drinking from a lake to be very difficult. I have to move around a lot to find the 'sweet spot' where the prompt to drink from it will appear. Just now I spent about 3 minutes trying to drink from my local lake now that I have my fancy water filter helmet but I couldn't get it to work. I moved around a bunch while standing, crouched, on the edge of the water, in the water, pointing up, pointing down, holding an item, holding nothing, wearing my helmet, wearing nothing- just couldn't get it to trigger. I might be wearing out my E key. I also punched the water a few times just in case, but no luck. I should always be able to drink water from the ponds just by pointing at them and hitting E, right? Shurenai on the Steam forums helped me out. Turns out I have to stand still for 2 seconds before the prompt to drink will appear, and I'm too twitchy to have thought of that.

Beelzybub Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Your hands should be empty. Look down at the water standing or crouching, but perfectly still. Take 3 deep long breaths. After that the "Press E to drink" option should appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylenThunder Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 I've noticed that it also doesn't trigger all the time if the water is really shallow. I just make sure I'm in at least ankle deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
