Oil Barrel
A big drum that stores items or up to 200 L of liquid, catches rain when left open, and can be turned into a fire barrel.
Comes in green, blue, red and yellow and mostly spawns on farms and in industrial areas. The lid opens and closes. Items stored alongside liquid get wet. An empty barrel can be carried. A kitchen knife permanently converts it into a barrel with holes, and it can also be made into a fire barrel for cooking. Update 1.30 tripled the speed at which barrels collect rainwater.
