Sinks should fill containers with water - Coolguye - 01-03-2013

Please add an interaction on sinks where if you put something that can hold a liquid (such as a beaker or fire extinguisher), it will fill the container with water. Among other things, this would make it a lot easier for Chefs to borrow a pot and a watering can from Botany to grow a little food on their own instead of hoping the Botanists take a break from their usual escapades to actually grow something edible.

but the sink is useful if you messed of a chem recipe and need to empty it instead of splashing it on your co-worker

The chef can fill containers with water with the sink.

chemists use the sink to empty their beakers if they don't want a horrible toxic radioactive mess on the ground, so maybe only empty containers get water?

Can they currently do this? I tried filling a watering can at a sink once and got nothing, but I suppose BYOND might have been feeling shitty that day.

100% fine in my view

You can fill containers from the kitchen sink, but not the chemistry one.

Whoa, that's unexpected actually. Kinda cool tho, not often we try to cook in chemistry nor do hobo chem in the kitchen.

I have never felt the need to have a beaker full of water as a Chemist, and especially not so urgently that I couldn't use the Chem Master. Am I missing something here?

Also it's useful for emptying out beakers as a Chem Borg if you don't want to waste a slot with a mini-Chem Master.

You obviously weren't there when the kitchen became my personal bathsalts factory. The Walrus burgers were delicious.

Right click on sink with container: "Clean container" or "Fill container"

You fill the beaker with water!

If using a box, "You fill the box with water but it becomes soggy and the water comes out!"

That explains a lot. I was trying to fill a watering can in chemistry so I could produce Holy Water in large quantities for a dumb gimmick and I didn't realize there was a difference between the one in Chem and the one in the Kitchen.

It'd be pretty cool if we could get the one in chemistry to spit out water for us but for basically every use case I can think of besides mine it's a non-issue due to the dispenser right there. So even though I'd like it I kinda feel like an asshole for asking.

OH WELL.

The chem dispenser can dispense out water, so a sink that you can fill containers up in chemistry is not needed.

We need a new chemistry recipe where if you have a 2:1 ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in your container it becomes water. Why don't we have this already?

I'm pretty sure that would conflict with some existing recipes.

Oh no what ever will we do if you can't synthesise water when it can already be dispensed?
