Hope this helps anyone!

is this going to get updated?

One question: Can mechs cross too?

Swimming should also affect the heatstroke and washing and joy

When a colonist gets removes torso clothes while in deep water, they sometimes keep the "swimming" look (no torso clothes) until the next clothes change. I've had a dude remove his damaged parka, and his tribalwear didn't show.

The deep ocean water from archipelagos doesnt work. ( a rainbeau´s mod)

Would be really nice if you could pach that.

I´m playing an island tribe and swimming between the islands would be cool, so that i can destroy my bridges if I´m raided.

Only Fertile Fields ~as far as I know~ ... Let me move my mod order around a bit and see if it goes away.

@Flesh Forge That's weird. I can't replicate the bug in my game. Do you have mods that affect water (that aren't rainbeau's fertile fields)

This doesn't seem to be working for me, I have your mod loaded last but when I draft a colonist and try to make them move out into deep water I can't place the waypoint. Also if I set a build/deconstruction task in an area separated by deep water I get "no path" when I right click the target.

I really should use this I guess :)

:ok_hand:

You should make it slower for moving water and a little faster for still water

Thanks!

Mod has been updated to 0.18.

Good, but can you land in ocean and have your entire colony built at 4.5% walk speed and only out of bridges?

Hmm ok

yea, ocean and moving deep water doesnt work, please do something about that

This doesn't seem to work with the rivers in A17. They use "moving water" as opposed to the generic still water like before.

Maybe talk to cuproPanda about pawns swimming for joy and running toward water when they're on fire. cuproPanda had to write joyDriver code to make Additional Joy Objects.

I'm quite hesitant when dealing with Pawn AI as it may result in the "requires new save" policy, which I hate, hate, HATE.

I was thinking: you know like the times in the hot summer where you would like to dip in the lake/ocean outside your house? swimming should be a source of joy and cooling your body temperature. you got the time for that? seems cool btw

darn, i had a drop pod full of items land on a coast out of reach because of ocean water tiles. would be nice if you added those to your mod too.

No, only deep water terrain tiles

does it affect ocean water too?

Wow, what a complete pleb Wiggins is. Anyway, thanks for the mod.

Updated.

I just saw that... You peeps read my mind sometimes.

Important thread regarding patch performance, affects your mod, please read and convert to the new method: https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=32874.0

and considering that after someone I know personally
(a certain, Ariana Elle... you know who she is) has just been devastated by an attack from ISIS, this argument is no more than a pathetic squabble
so just shut up, if you have any sense

@TheHydroAce and nobody would ask me, considering this is a public comment section
to be honest, I like playing rimworld, I just like realism, which is why I get realistic mods

TheHydro
you are a bit late, this convo ended ages ago

Remember that A16 versions can be acquired from my Ludeon page: ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=30813.0

@danielwiggins323 Nobody asked you. If a minute detail like a text box displaying "lying down" instead of "swimming" is destroying your gameplay immersion then you should honestly not be playing Rimworld, a game where a human can survive 15 gunshots, and can build an entire house in one day.

Due to the makeup of the game I cant just "add" an additonal checker to the game's accuracy, I'm adding on an existing one, so "lying down"is just a placeholder for you to know that the raider/colonist is swimming. Sorry about any misunderstandings >.>

which is why this mod is unrealistic, as yes, the speed is slow but they are not considered as "lying down" they are considered as "swimming" as colonists can swim in shallow water anyway
be realistic... lying down makes you more accurate when shooting

technically that makes no sense
you are more accurate lying down when shooting
just saying, get it right before you post it on there
they would be considered lying down as in, they are crawling but more accurate

Of course, for every mod it's like this unless specified, no need to ask.

can this mod be used on existing (modded) saves?

Yay now i cant cheat by placing deep water round my base all the time :)

I updated! Raiders in deep water will be even more dangerous now, as they are less likely to be hit.

However, because of logic you can't go start a caravan in the middle of the ocean :P

Animals and humans alike will be able to wade through deep water.

be nice if you made weapons invisible when in deep water

Does this affect animals?

does this mod mean i can swim into the ocean as a caravan and set up in the ocean and build a small island?

I could just imagine scythers with rubber armbands and then centipedes with a large rubber ring or personal inflatable dinghy :P

Yup. Mechanoids can swim.

Does this mean that mechanoids can swim too? :P

leme know if you change it to mass ect/ more realistic n id be interested.

would be a good benefet if you made it so the ai would drown/ take damage after being in it too long, so ie, if you make a island base, theyd drown before reaching it, (idealy, only those not wearing heavy armor should be able to swim deep water) --- maybe link the ability with total mass, say anything heavy cant, ( ofc itd a mess cause bears can swim/ horses. but-- its still progress dude. good work
