I would assume it desalinates water. Granted, that makes absolutely zero sense since you can't just add something to water to take the salt out. Though, it would be really easy to make a still to desalinate the water.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

Well this IS the future and they have crazy nanotech. Maybe something added to the water could cause it to precipitate all the salt to the bottom of the container and you pour the clean water off.

The thing is I can't dip it in the waterskin.
I can only 'a'pply it

Also caves of qud alchemy is awesome.

Try to make the following, it's just fun to seek out those things:
lush salt
honeyed water
pure salt

I just built a chain-pistol straight from the schematic. I got a drumloaded slender one.

Then I scanned it with psychometry and ended up learning to build a lacquered one.

Wut.

They power things which take power cells. A solar cell can be recharged by dropping it on the ground.

Solar cells are quite nice with photosynthetic skin, since you can take em down while diving, then when you get wilted go up and drop the cells to recharge them.

Stuff from this thread we actually did so far

    * Redone heating and cooling system with specific heat and phase transitions (melt rock into lava, heat water into steam)

From here

Seeing how it's been mentioned in this thread I'm sure you guys will be pleased to know it been worked on, as am I because I have lost characters to steam, and lava's always good. The rest of that thread is also interesting, for anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

How about making chemicals, and herb combined with certain types of liquids make potions?

That would be awesome. And the system is already there, just add 'a'pply to things like qudzu stem and say combined with honey it makes a qudzu potion that you can drink?

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Found a typo.

Apparently I can sting to guarantee a strike with the stringer.
