Boiling Water Pot or Melting Snow

[RayRocks]

Dear Endnight,

I think it would be awesome to add in a pot to boil water just like in The Forest. I am currently built near ocean and I am near a small lake. But it is now winter and I will have to hike to get to any rivers. I just think it would be a small but great addition to the game! Also, being able to melt snow is an idea from The Majestic_Delay. And being able to desalinate seawater is from The_Neon_Reaper. These additional ideas were found in the comments below, also thanks to Jethro for the feedback as well!

Boiling ocean water is a no-no though!

If we could melt snow, that would be sweet. If you mean boiling ocean water (salt water), nah.

Perhaps a better addition would be to give us a way to desalinate seawater and make it drinkable.

Yep, don't boil and drink sea water. That has to go through a desalinator.
If the wrecked yacht were still around, they probably have one onboard. Just need a couple golf cart batteries, and a way to recharge them, and that would work.

Otherwise, to desalinate the sea water, you'd have to go beyond boiling, and all the way to distilling to remove the salt content to make it drinkable, as salt water causes dehydration and dehydration causes your thirst gauge to flash red.

Melt snow and turn it into drinkable water is a must feature and i dont know why its missing.
Lacking drinkable water is what keeps me away from building into the mountains, and i found such a nice place there :)
