Boilable Water Jug [B42]

Description
This mod enables large water dispenser jugs to be purified directly by boiling, just like other water containers. Simply place the jug on a heat source (oven, campfire, etc.), and after sufficient cooking time, the water will be safe to drink.


Compatible with Build 42
No new items or UI — fully vanilla-integrated
Safe to add to/remove from existing saves




“Finally, I can purify water without juggling saucepans like a circus act.”
— Denise, former office manager, current jug enthusiast

“Tastes like freedom. And maybe a little melted plastic.”
— Kev, campfire cook and proud owner of three boiled jugs

“I didn’t survive a zombie outbreak just to pour water back and forth all day.”
— Tony, hydration minimalist

@Viberipper Im not able to get on to check rn, but I swore you could already do that. If not, I should be able to add that without too much fuss! Give me a little to look into it and I'll see what I can do o7

i just want to be able to boil water on a fire with a bucket. litterally can only boil water in a microwave

@Joewlpc Thats not how physics work. You can see in many survial shows that you can safely boil water in plastic bottles and as a former scout i can tell you that its fully true. Go do some research before saying bullshit.

Microplastic in your veins actually makes you stronger, always boil your plastic kids

Yes let me bring plastic up to boiling temperature, oh, wait, where is my plastic jug? all I see is a melted pile of goo.

I was going to comment on never having had a glass jug (My family kept a cold water dispenser) in the 90's, but it seems others are on top of it -- One idea I have is limiting it to a lootable glass jug to make it a rare high volume item?

Might be as simple as a texture change (less blue, more clear/white) that would leave adventurers hunting for the fabled "High volume water purification jug" that lets them stockpile and prep en masse with much less fussing with smaller containers.

@Sir Aroun Im actually trying to add a melted state to the jug if you heat it too high and/or for too long. While sure drinking it probably aint the best for long term health, I'd be stressing more over the zombies getting to me before I worry about cancer in an apocalypse lol.

Not sure if I can pull it off, but also wanna add in noxious fumes that give sickness akin to the corpse sickness if you leave it in after hitting the melted state, but being as this is my first attempt at modding we'll see how that goes.
