So something I remember @madmole talking about and something prebuild pointed out was wanting to have water be a scares resource due to some media having scares water
There a few i can think of like that
Mad max, water world, fallout 3, 4 and 76,
What most of these forms of media have are Extream conditions 7 days only really has 1 that bring a radioactive biome. (Getting to that later) but its on par with survival media like TWD, the last of us, Etc..no one really worry about water
But the game is set in Navezgane Arizona, Arizona is a pretty warm place but I wouldn't say water is scares unless your in the desert. But even then there's a river going through it
Now in real life, water is kinda easy to clean but there are a few things. According to my old survival book
A clean water sources like rivers is the "safest" but still not safe to consume do to bacteria, run off, fecies, etc. Lakes are much less safe and stuff like say pools or really any manmade body of water would be the unsafe option. Hell back then do to alcohol, it was safer to drink beer or wine then to drink. Before it was really understood that boiling helped kill bacteria
Snow is a option but snow build up on the ground could be VERY unsafe to drink straight up do to dirt, poop, metal build up.
Also water sources near mines (nazezgane has quiet a few) can be unsafe do to toxic metals
Radation while granted I dont know much about. Given that there's a river running through the wasteland, odds are some fallout leaked into the water..
Zombies is a whole different problem. If a zombie say slept in a water supply or vat or something... that water is now Instantly unsafe to drink cuz the virus, rotten meat, ■■■■ etc. If a group say slept in a pool that is basicly septic water and very if not completely undrinkable.
Okay so we not only got mining in the local area, man made pollution and run off, mining for metals like iron, silver and LEAD! RADIOACTIVE fallout, and zombies possibly sleeping, dead or worst, left in a state were they can't move just rott in the water.... yeah rivers and lakes should be very unsafe
Plumbing should be off by now but we still got power so... idk and even then its best not to drink it. I wouldn't drink the water near parishton
But the safest way to completely remove most crap from water is distilling However it can be fuel intestive and take alot of time. Boiling could help with bacteria but unless you filter it via a Makeshift filter or a filter you find. Then boil it. It's still not the best option but distilling gets most things out but some stuff may not.
What are yalls thoughts
