    do you have a gravity augment or liquid immunity effect on your character?
    some liquids, like the mech fuel, or gases from FU, can't be swam in

    I originally thought the mod broke, but i do have a few questions i need to ask. Does ISP work in Lava?
    I installed a mod that adds alot of colored Waters to the game one of them is lava colored water.

    The mod only affects liquids that give the 'swim' buff. The low gravity augment also prevents swimming
    If you send me the link to the mod, I can make a patch to allow those liquids to be swam in :D

    Not gonna lie, this little change made my entire Starbound experience tragically and swiftly swim towards ocean and tropical planets. I don't know why it did, but every time I jump into the water my face lights up with the excitement of being "free" in the water.

    Anyway, thanks a ton for this mod. There's a bug where if a physics block, such as fine sand, falls onto you underwater you'll be immobilized even after you dig out of it. Not sure what causes that and a Save/Reload fixes it, but it's the only issue I've encountered so far.

    It works fine with 1.4. Are you using anything that adjusts your gravity, like a gravity augment? Those won't work with the swim physics for some reason

    I'm having a strange bug when jump into water, I can't move and stuck, so I'm thinking that maybe some realistic mods or techs made my character stuck in the water. I'm checking them out at the moment.
    Btw, cute user picture you got there. :3

    EDIT.1 - I found it, it's "Realism Bound" that made me stuck in the water.
    I'm assuming that the feature from "Realism Bound" where made player can't move in space apply to this new improved swimming mechanic.

    EDIT.2 - I edited and removed a feature in "Realism Bound" where can't move in space, and now I can swim as it should be. :p

    An awesome, but I have but one question/request
    Is there any way to make it so you don't dash when you press w + a/d? It's obnoxious when you wanna swim up and a bit to the left and suddenly you're rocketing across the whole body of water.

    Hi. It sounds like you're using Zerotap Dash or something similar. Either way, the air and blink dash tech would still give problems while swimming. I'm working on a fix for it right now, though. It might require you to uninstall Zerotap Dash or any other mods that change dash.lua though.


    Enjoy! :D

    Much thanks! I use the Freedom of Movement mod, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was causing some trouble.

    A bit late to bring it up, but I should mention that the dash patch isn't compatible with vanilla for anyone else that wants to use it, so don't try to pop on servers with it. Otherwise works like a charm though!
