Iwanw: Added requirement for oxygen to combust volatiles into water

[[Category:Liquid]]

== Obtaining ==
You can obtain water by smelting or crushing [[Ice (Water)]] using a [[Furnace]] or an [[Ice Crusher]], or by combusting [[Volatiles]] and [[Oxygen]] using the [[Kit (Atmospherics) H2 Combustor]]. Filtering is no longer required as the [[Furnace]] and [[Ice Crusher]] now contain separate outputs for liquids and gasses.

== Usage ==
Water needs to be consumed by the player in order to stay alive. It is also used to grow plants in a [[Hydroponic Tray]] or a [[Hydroponic Station]].

Water can only be consumed from a [[Water Bottle]], which can be filled using a [[Water Bottle Filler]]

Water has a specific heat of 72 Joule / mol making it great for cooling.

== History ==
Water was previously treated as a [[Gas]]. It could be part of the athmospere, and could be stored in gas tanks and pipes. However, since with "Go with the flow" update, a new system for liquids has been introduced, including separate pipes, tanks, pumps, etc for liquids. Water is currently the only available liquid.

Atmosphere

Atmospherics is one of the main simulated systems in [[Stationeers]]. The game world consists of many individual units of atmosphere that interact with each other as well as structures and items that are in contact or intersecting with them.
== Atmosphere Properties == 
Each unit of atmosphere simulates a number of properties, these properties generally change over time as the atmosphere interacts with the surroundings.

=== Contents === 
Each unit of atmosphere contains its' own composition of gasses and liquids represented in quantity by [[moles|mol]]. Common gasses are [[Oxygen]], [[Volatiles]], [[Nitrogen]], [[Carbon Dioxide]] and [[Pollutant]].
Since the "Go with the flow" update, [[Water]] is no longer present in atmosphere, and can no longer exist in the form of gas. Water is now part of a separate liquid system.

=== Heat Energy ===
Stationeers attempts to simulate thermodynamics by having atmospheres contain heat energy.
The effective temperature of one atmosphere depends on the heat energy relative to the amount of gasses in the atmosphere.
This means that a very small atmosphere can reach very high temperatures with a small amount of added heat.

|-
| Nitrous Oxide || 23.0
|-
| Carbon Dioxide || 28.2
|-
| Pollutant || 24.8
|-
| Nitrogen || 20.6
|}

=== Pressure ===
Pressure is a product of the contents of the atmosphere adjusting by temperature/heat.

== Large Grid Atmosphere == 
The most common type of atmosphere is the large grid atmosphere. In the main game world, each large grid unit (the size of a [[Frame]]) contains one unit of atmosphere.
The atmosphere in one large grid will exchange contents and heat with neighbouring atmospheres in order to equalize their content.
An atmosphere in a vacuum will eventually spread out and dissipate in within a few large grid atmospheres of distance.

== Pipe Network == 
Each individual pipe network is simulated with one atmosphere. If you break up a pipe network with a device such as a pump or valve, you effectively control the interaction of gasses between the two atmospheres.

== Structures == 
Individual structures that contain atmospheres (static tanks, etc) will interact either with a pipe network or directly with the surrounding atmosphere, it depends on the configuration.

== Items == 
Some items in the game contain their own units of atmosphere, such as [[Canister]]s, [[Suit]]s and even the players' [[Lungs]].
Items with atmospheres, just like other atmospheres, can be heated by direct sunlight, leading to canisters bursting by pressure, or fuel autoigniting(exploding) at high pressure/temperature.
