Improved Swim Physics!

Description
The vanilla Starbound swim physics works like this:
- Move player down, constantly, no matter what.
- Press SPACE to skyrocket like 5 blocks up, or 198 blocks if you have the Swim Boost buff or augment.
- Give player unlimited jumps
- Move left and right slowly
- Make people hate ocean biomes

This mod replaces those physics with new ones! They work like this:
- Press SPACE to begin swimming
- Press UP to swim up
- Press LEFT to swim left
- Press RIGHT to swim right
- Press DOWN to swim down
- Hold JUMP and swim towards the surface of the liquid to jump out of it

The player character will automatically begin to swim when the water is up to their chest.

If you join a multiplayer server with this mod installed, and the server does not have this mod installed, only you will be effected by this mod.

@Ruin Thank you, I may look into it sometime, sorry

The swimming augment doesn't seem to increase swim speed.

@Lordgenesisshadow yes, it affects all of the vanilla ones, plus a few modded ones iirc

This is going to make some planets a lot easier. Does it affect other liquids?

no problem!! I'm glad you enjoy it, and I hope you enjoy the original content too!

Thank you! Btw, currently trying out your Betabound and it's such a warm feeling to see some legacy content back)

@Max Payne most likely. this mod is safe to uninstall at any time, so feel free to try it!

Hi, is it compatible with Supper's Combat Overhaul? That mod improves movement in water as well if I'm not mistaken.

I think it increases but I haven't really tried. I've been letting Apple/Vulpine do the updates recently

I have a question about this mod, if your character has any swimming benefits (either due to a race trait, or by using a swimming augmentation), how does the character behave? Does it increase swimming speed? or does it shoot up like in vanilla?
