I'm definitely not confident or patient enough to play that character yet, though! The best traits in Project Zomboid are Short Sighted, High Thirst and Weak Stomach, they are examples of traits that cause little to no inconvenience and or are easy to fix. Although it seems daunting at first, a good source of water is really not that hard to come across. Take weak stomach instead.
