Water pump#1703

a one slot module that is a must need due to it drilling into the ground while deployed to provide the water that the drillship turns to steam to function.
the main intent is this is a (only need one but can add more) module that limits how long players can spend underground. as right now running away is a far to viable tactic the moment anything gets rough, making the risk reward portion of the game loose the risk factor, but if you need to surface constantly to ensure the drill doesnt blow up from overheat it makes every choice you make matter far more, especally with micromanaging your drill to make sure it’s been up long enough to last through the upcoming eruption. now it is more than easy to not have to worry about water because each pump would also give more water storage and harvest speed (this can be disabled when making a custom dificulty and is outright disabled in hard mode, but only the increased storage, more pumps allways = faster water harvest), and it should not be present in easy mode period.

And what if they added a Steam generator to those pumps, like you would have to have water and coal in storage and you would have a T1-3 steam generator and generate more than induction and coal + some T1-3 Tanker modules would be added there (what do you think is a good idea?)
