Base Desalinator

I'd love to see drinkable sinks, a hygiene stat, and plumbing introduced to bases at some point, but with the salt deposits in the water it's safe to assume it's salt water, a desalinator that could be placed much like the solar panels would be a nice touch for plumbing.

I think that is an excellent idea. Though rather then being outside the habitat, I thought it would install in one of the wall slots like glass or reinforcement. Had the same idea for the nuclear reactor. A wall mounted unit. That way, the desalinator is both inside and outside at the same time and can function.

I think such a station for water preparation should need resources like bleach and not only power to generate clean water.
But I like the idea of an extra machine for that purpose.

Maybe it could generate "Potable Water" by default, but can produce "Pure Water" with the addition of Bleach to the machine.
Potable Water would do less for the thirst stat than Pure Water, etc.

Both Hoven and Leo's ideas combined would be great integrated to the wall mounted module. would be the same as the current water available from the fabricator but rather then having to bring airsacs, the water is already there. would need rules for regular water such as a distribution time the way the still suit does, then bleach for purified water on demand. so if you leave the base for a while, you will return to a few bottles of potable water after so much time.
