Trait for aquatic creatures to drink dirty water
Reasoning: Especially aquatic creatures like Sarcosuchus are very reliant on the water ressource. It serves both as bait so that other animals come close enough, but aquatic creatures are also the ones mostly balanced around speed in water, being slow on land.
Due to the dirty water mechanic the creatures that rely the most on ambushes and water are forced to travel the most, which is very much counterintuitive.

drinzjcIMO, it would be better to reduce the amount of hydration lost when sprinting, since that is your main loss of hydration as a semi aquatic; E.g: You're a sarco who swam from crook to cc, you'll be back down to roughly 80% if you "sprinted" back.

NachtaIt's quite annoying as a sarco to have to deal with a dirty lake, traveling to a new lake is very risky. I also prefer to be in the big lake as a sarco, because who doesn't want more habitat room? But you really can't afford to do that with dirty water because all the water in the area is usually dirty so as a sarco you're forced to inhabit some tiny pond somewhere, which then also gets dirty after a while because you're there. It's a whole mess. :(

FalseI have to Agree. Ive brought this up before especially when Sarco's hunt in murky waters anyway to better conceal their presence in the water. would help. Aswell their are fish they could hunt as well since the catfish style fish you have in the game prefers murky water as well

AlexeiI think the game should just add a replenish quest for all the water sources like they have at Tyrants Gorge, this way it would not only address this issue but would also give the aquatics something else to do. But making sure its not bugged like it sometimes is at TG where the replenish quest wont work and wont actually replenish the water.

random anodontoSarcos and other crocs live in brackish waters. Even modern day crocs live in dirty muddy water. It gets annoying having to constantly go to a new lake as a sarco and the fact that the only fish in the game that gives good amount of food is the arapaima which is in barely any of the lakes in the game. If semi aquatics can drink dirty water it would have been a lot more helpful then to just go to another lake every ten minutes just to find out that theres no fish.
