How to make and use a Rain Collector in Project Zomboid
To make a rain collector in Project Zomboid, you will first need a hammer by searching various containers and buildings. If you have trouble finding a hammer, we recommend looking in warehouses, searching cupboards, garden tool houses, and garages.
Alternatively, you can make a stone hammer, but doing so requires foraging. In short, you will need to forage for one tree branch, one stone, and you will also need one ripped sheet or rag.
How to make a Stone Hammer in Project Zomboid
All three resources you need to make a stone hammer are pretty easy to get. If you want to get one stone and one tree branch, you will first need to locate a woodland or wilderness area.
When you locate either area, start foraging by entering search mode. To enter search mode, you will need to click on the magnifying glass on the left of your screen, as shown below.
Clicking on the magnifying glass will open a tab called investigate mode, and in this tab, you will be able to start foraging in the area you are by clicking enable search mode, as shown below.
Enabling search mode will have your character search the surrounding area for resources as you move around in the area.
Keep searching the wilderness or woodland area until you find one stone and one tree branch. Next, you will need to get ripped sheets to make a stone hammer.

How to use a rain collector in Project Zomboid
To use a Rain Collector in Project Zomboid, you will first need to make one and place it outside, and you will then need to wait for some rain.
When it rains in the game, the collector will fill up with useable water that you can drink to stay hydrated. Because of this, we recommend using the Rain Collector as a source of water at your base or a location you can quickly get to.
