EN - Water pump vs mechancial water pump naming confusion, two possible solutions.

12 votes

While "Water pump" is technically a correct name for both buildings, they are two different buildings with different use cases. The similar names thus cause some confusion.

I suggest renaming the Mechanical Water Pump to a "Mechanical Water Lift". That keeps it still technically correct, while giving a better idea as to it's game-play use. (Also makes it easier for me to explain that I want a "Manual Water Lift" building that acts like a slower and cheaper mechanical water pump but which requires a worker.

The other option is to rename the Water Pump to something like "Water Filtration Station", which has the added benefit of explaining why beavers can't just drink directly from the river. (I'd also like to see a mechanically powered water filter building as a late game IronTeeth building)
