Small Water Catcher

The Small Water Catcher is a deployable that collects water passively. It's useful to keep a solo player or small group hydrated without having to leave their base. The catcher is capable of holding 10,000 ml of water. Catchers receive collection bonuses during weather events such as rain, snow, and fog.
