Water Purifier
Am I missing something, or can you not put boiled water in a purifier to purify it? They even mention in the game to purify water you need to boil dirty water first. So what am I missing?

Dirty Water becomes Boiled Water by cooking it so it becomes "safe" to drink (still some rads but no sickness) and you need it for cooking recipes.

To purify water, you either place a purifier in water and power it (so it generates purified water), or you need to craft water filters to purify boiled water;
I think - might be dirty water, not sure, because why go through the trouble when you have water purifier straight generating the stuff.

No the point of the question though?

And yes you still get benefits from being well fed, and there is function food very much enhancing your build.

Just because it's technically not needed for survival does not mean it's useless.

Don't have to have weapons-only strong legs and run like hell. Plus every time you die you are healed. But i would do some quests to get a water purifier.

as a long time side-question haunting me : why can't we cook with purified water ?
this is just so absurd :steamfacepalm:

It's follows the logic beacuse it's not "boiled", but it doesn't make sense design wise.

Why do your broken bones heal when you stab yourself with a stimpak?
Why can you "magic" a weapon so it works differently but it's random?
Why can you take "RadAway" and your rad, well, goes away without your DNA breaking down and you dying a horrible, painful death?

Why are there no Botsmith variants of Robot Armor helmets even though they are present in the files?
