== Sources ==
This building becomes available once you have learned the [[Deep Well Construction]] tech AND {{RequireSkill | Project Management | 1}}.

== Cost ==
* (X) [[Rope]], varies based on elevation. 25 rope at sea level
* (Y) [[Bricks]], varies based on elevation. 200 bricks at sea level
* 1 [[Small Barrels]]
* 2 [[Iron Wire]]
* 1 [[Crudely Carved Handle]]
* 10 [[Boards]]

* Built in a [[Small Construction Site]].

== Use ==
After building the well, it gradually accumulates water over time. Looks initially like 1 water every ducky minute. A basic water well stopped accumulating water at 4000.

Water containers can be filled from the well in the same way as from any other body of water or storage barrel.

It is also not yet known whether there are any restrictions on which locations can be used for a Water Well, do they have to be within a certain distance from an actual body of water or other well?

Water Wells can be connected to a [[Ranch]] via [[Pipe Segments]]. To do this, click on the Ranch and select Utility->Connect to a nearby Water Source. The distance between the Ranch and the Well will determine how many Pipe Segments are needed to connect the two. For example, Water Well 240 ft away from a ranch required 25 [[Pipe Segment]]s. Note: The well cannot be at a lower elevation than the Ranch. This can be checked with a [[Barometer]].

From Discord:

a well now produces 40 water an hour
a ranch consumes 70 water per 3 hours (at max capacity)
you can upgrade a well with a steam engine to generate 120 water an hour
allowing you to supply max 5 ranches at full capacity via steam engine

[[Category:Buildings]]

== Upgrades ==

The Well can be upgraded with 1 [[Small Steam Engine]]. After installing the engine, the well has the option to 'Add Fuel (Coal)' and 'Ignite the Steam Engine Boiler'. The max amount of coal which can be loaded is more than 500 (that's how much coal I had in my inventory at the time).
Igniting the Boiler takes:

* 1 [[Tinder]]
* 1 [[Steel]]
* 1 [[Flint]]

When the boiler is running, there is the option to 'Pour water into the firebox'. This stops the engine and it needs the Tinder, Steel and Flint to restart. With the boiler running, the Well accumulates 3x the amount of water as a non-upgraded Well.
