v.05 (and earlier) - Dehydration while sleeping

[Bill Tarling]

I drink before sleeping, but even after only 6 hours sleep I wake up almost completely dehydrated.

Not sure if that's a bug, setting, or intentional.

I checked on the tuning values for Thrist, and it does increase by 12.5 percentage points per game hour, so a 6 hour sleep would result in Thirst going up by 75 percentage points. So, the system is operating correctly given the tuning values in place. Raph will have to give his perspective on whether this is too punishing or not.

I did a test where I slept for 12 hours (starting with no thirst and 100% condition), and when I woke up I was at 86% condition. It does feel a bit off that you would take a condition hit due to dehydration for sleeping 12 hours.

It might be good to wake the player up in this condition, kinda like having to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Definitely died by over sleeping a couple of times trying to get rid of food poisoning and dehydrating in my sleep.
