</>What does Full Thirst do?
Between fighting mutants and building your base, the last thing you want is to trek back to a stream every few minutes because your thirst meter is flashing. Full Thirst keeps you topped up so you can forget the water breaks. With it switched on, your hydration stays full no matter how far you roam. Push deep into dry caves, spend the whole day exploring the far side of the island, and grind through big building projects without dehydration nagging at you. Perfect for long expeditions away from water, relaxed survival runs, or anyone who'd rather explore than babysit a thirst bar. Works best in solo or offline play; in co-op, outcomes are decided by the host.

</>Common questions about Full Thirst
What does Full Thirst do in Sons of the Forest?
Full Thirst keeps your hydration meter full in Sons of the Forest, so dehydration never slows you down. Normally, your thirst bar ticks down as you play, forcing you to trek back to a stream every few minutes right when you're in the middle of a fight or a build. With Full Thirst on, your hydration stays topped up no matter how far you roam, so you can forget about water entirely. Push deep into dry caves, spend the whole day on the far side of the island, or grind through a big building project without ever stopping for a drink.
Does Full Thirst mean I never have to find water again?
That's exactly what Full Thirst does in Sons of the Forest — it keeps your hydration pinned at full, so finding and drinking water becomes optional. You won't get the low-thirst warning, and dehydration will never start affecting you no matter how long you go without a drink. This is a big deal in the island's dry caves, where clean water can be scarce and a draining thirst bar usually forces an early exit. With Full Thirst on, you can stay down there as long as you like. You can still drink if you want to, but it no longer changes anything since the meter is already maxed.
Does Full Thirst also stop hunger or keep me from getting sick?
No. Full Thirst only manages hydration in Sons of the Forest — it doesn't touch hunger, energy, health, or sickness. You'll still need to eat, rest, and avoid damage, and drinking dirty water could still make you sick unless you also run the Clean Bill mod. If you want more of the survival layer handled, ProjectMods has matching mods: Full Hunger for food, Full Sleep for energy, and Iron Body, which freezes hunger, thirst, and energy together in one switch. Full Thirst on its own is the focused pick when the only thing you want gone is the constant need to stop and drink.
Is Full Thirst adjustable, or just on and off?
Full Thirst is a simple on/off toggle in the ProjectMods launcher — there's no percentage or slider, because your hydration is either held at max or draining normally. Flip the card on and thirst stops mattering; flip it off and Sons of the Forest resumes the usual water management. Since it's fully reversible, you can play a stretch of proper survival where water actually matters, then switch Full Thirst on before a long cave expedition or a marathon build so you're not interrupted. Toggling it has no effect on your save, so you can turn it on only for the sessions where hunting down water would slow you down.
When is Full Thirst most useful in Sons of the Forest?
Full Thirst is most useful for long expeditions away from water, relaxed survival runs, and anyone who'd rather explore than babysit a thirst bar in Sons of the Forest. Dry cave systems and the island's remote corners are where thirst bites hardest, since there's often no stream nearby — Full Thirst lets you stay out there for as long as you want. It also suits builders sinking hours into a project far from a water source. Works best in solo or offline play; in co-op, thirst outcomes are decided by the host, so the effect applies to whoever is running the session.
