Canteen

The Canteen is an item for storing water and is one of the starting items the player receives upon creating a new profile and spawning for the first time except in a hardcore profile. '''The first canteen a player receives will be lost upon death, and from there the player must craft a new one. '''Along side water bottles and apples, the canteen is one of the only sources of hydration in Subsistence.

Canteens do not stack.

Uses
The canteen is used for filling the player's hydration meter. The canteen can be filled in any water source by standing in the water and going into the inventory, right-clicking, and selecting 'Fill with water'. The canteen will be filled with dirty water initially, however when boiled by campfire or other heating sources, will become purified.

Canteens filled with dirty water will refill the player's hydration by +22, however it may poison the player, therefor, drinking from a dirty canteen is not a preferred solution.

Canteens filled with pure water will refill the player's hydration by +34.

Canteens may also be used to provide water in a Plant Bed or Animal Housing. Using purified water will fill the water meter more then using unpurified water.
