I’ve never waited that long in an offline raid. Interesting. Maybe they do then and have never been around long enough to notice it. 

I have this weird theory that scavs can and do die of dehydration. If you ever play and offline game and stay in the raid until around 5mins left you’ll notice that there are a lot of dead scavs you didn’t kill. I don’t know what else would kill them save for dehydration. 

Does... Does it really matter?

Even if they added a single drink to ai inventory it would last them the raid

Player scabs suffer from dehydration. AI scabs do not. Is realism important here or not?

Should AI scabs have to carry and drink liquids?
