I've got two hydration bugs with the new update.

The first one is that staff hydration seems broken. Actually, staff needs in general seems to be acting wonky where they just seem to not take a break nearly often enough even when they have nothing to do at the time. But even when they do, they seem to never fix their hydration need.

The second bug is with the water cooler. Fountains and drink machines work to reduce hydration need. For some reason, the water cooler doesn't seem to at all. I realized some of my prisoners weren't satisfying their hydration need, but not others so I started to look at the differences and then set up a prison where I had a few areas separated entirely. In one, I put water fountains, another drink machines, and the third, water coolers. The first two would get drinks and satisfy the need. The latter with the water coolers absolutely never approached the water cooler at all, let alone satisfy the need for hydration.

Search for an item named "Drink Fountain" in-game. The water cooler should have no relation with the new DLC's hydration need hence the bug. (I went into some sorta log of items to find out the item's name since I was also wondering)

As in, the bug is that they forgot to include the water cooler as one of the hydration objects
