Water
Water is a dark blue liquid, transportable via pipes. Water containers can be transferred into (or out of) pipes via a loader. Each container contains 1,000 units.
Water is a life requirement for the population, and must be present on the ship for long term survival. The population will consume water that is in containers or in tanks at a rate of 20 every 10 minutes per individual. Access to the water is unnecessary, if it's on the ship it will be consumed.
In addition to consumption by the population, water can be used to generate oxygen using an oxygen maker.

- Water containers can be purchased from traders or salvaged by logistics drones.
- Ice can be harvested from comets and then processed into water.
- Water can be recycled from sewage by connecting a sewage pipe to a waste treatment machine, and then to a water purifier and connecting them all to a power source.
