Dehydration is a dangerous status when in the desert. When thirst is left untreated for too long, a citizen will become Dehydrated! Dehydrated!, which puts them on Death's Door.

Cause

• Dehydration is encountered any time a Citizen goes to sleep Thirsty Thirsty and also not Refreshed Refreshed.
• Walking 11 squares in the desert while Thirsty Thirsty will make you dehydrated immediately. See the Zombie Survival Almanac for more information on how to avoid this.
  • The counter does not reset even if you return town and go out again. For example, if you walk 6 squares and return town. Walking 5 squares more will immediately "downgrade" your status.

Effect

• If a citizen goes to sleep Dehydrated! Dehydrated!, no matter whether they are Refreshed Refreshed, they will die that night.
• Continue to walk 11 squares more while Dehydrated! Dehydrated! will result in immediate death.
  • The counter does not reset even if you return town and go out again.
  • If death by dehydration occurs outside of town, no Meaty_Bone Meaty Bone will be left behind.

Removal

• Taking Hydratone 100mg Hydratone 100mg will upgrade it to Thirsty Thirsty status, and also adds the Drugged Drugged status. It will not recover any .
• Drinking a Water Ration Water Ration / Purified Stagnant Water Purified Stagnant Water will upgrade it to Thirsty Thirsty status but will not recover any .
  • You greedily gulp down your ration of water, without tasting it in the least... Your throat still burns as much, but at least you aren't dehydrated anymore...

Notes

• The 'My Daily Tasks' list on the Overview of the Town page will list "drink (or die tonight)" as the top action to do that day.
