Better Diving
Overhaul of the vanilla diving experience modeled on the game Subnautica.
Note: When posting issues down in the comments please use a spoiler for your crash report. I also set up a GitHub Page where you can post issues.
Features
Movement
No automatic sinking.
You swim in the direction you are looking instead of just straight forward. So if you look upwards you will swim upwards.
Swimming at the surface doubles swimspeed bonuses and penalities.
Swimspeed minimum at 1 / 3 of base swimspeed and maximum of 4 / 3 of base swimspeed (depth strider enchantment counts toward the base swimspeed -> increases the limits)
Oxygen
You can dive for 45 seconds with taking one breath of air.
Every level of the Respiration enchantment allows you to stay 15 seconds longer under water (up to +45 seconds).
Every 30 blocks below surface oxygen efficiency is decreased and so you consume more oxygen (the next air block over the player is counted as the surface).
Breaking blocks
Breaking blocks under water works at 100% of normal efficiency.
The Aqua Affinity lets you break blocks 10% faster under water.
New items
There are currently 3 versions of each item. A basic version. An improved version for increased perks. And a reinforced versions with more armor points.
Diving Masks:
Removes the water block overlay when diving. Needed for diving with Oxygen Tanks.
With the improved version you can dive at normal efficiency at depths greater than 30 blocks.
Oxygen Tanks:
Hold oxygen for longer dive sessions. Wearing slightly decreases the players swimspeed.
Wetsuit Leggings:
Wearing wetsuit leggings improve the players breakspeed under water.
Fins:
Increase the swimspeed of the player.
Visual changes
Oxygen GUI:
Custom oxygen display.
Fog underwater:
Altered fog while diving.
Diving deeper increases fog density.
During night fog gets more dense and turns darker.
Plants
Creepvine:
Grows like Kelp up to 14 blocks high. Generates between y=30 and y=44. Used in crafting recipes. Also grows seeds which can be harvested with right click and used for crafting.
Seagrass:
Just deco which generates all over the ocean.
Acid Mushroom:
Grows in clusters on the seabed. Can be used for crafting.
Ores
Limestone Outcrop:
Breaking it drops Titanium or Copper Ore.
Sandstone Outcrop:
Breaking it drops Silver Ore, Lead or Gold.
Vehicles
Seamoth:
A small, versatile one-person submersible capable of sustained high-speed travel over considerable distances.
Plans
- various mobs that live in the ocean
- tools for easier underwater exploration (seaglide, ...)
- (changes to fog and lightning underwater and a flashlight)

A Leviathan against a Sea Serpent from Ice and Fire :-)
i like to see the leviathans in the mod like the Reaper, Ghost and more ow and from veachles if u can make a multiblock cyclops
Well I think I now know what I'm doing today!
is this compatible with Ido?
In reply to endernet2009:
I think it is not fully compatible but if you disable the movement module it should work fine. Though some items (for example the fins) will have no effect on speed. And you also have to use the movement changes in water from Ido then (which in my opinion are not great)
I love this mod so much, but it still look empty. BOP well complements the ocean, but I would like to see at least one mob.
In reply to UwU_cheburek_UwU:
Since I'm unsure if i can implement a flashlight like i would like to I currently working on mobs. So they are the next thing i want to add currently.
hi,
I have found the begin of your Oxygen GUI think in your mod. In Subnautica is this Oxygen GUI to see. Will you all this GUIs add in your mod in the future or only this one GUI to Oxygen?
In reply to titoo8899:
Currently i will leave it with only the oxygen gui.
can I turn off vanilla swimming? What could not be lowered without a suit and just swim at the top?
it would be nice if you could swim along the surface of the river, but you cannot dive underwater without a suit.
This is interesting for the creators of assemblies, since you can bring some kind of mechanics under water, the same ore on the surface of the ocean floor or other plants. Since the oceans are now dead, you can plunge there for clay and nothing more.
In reply to LastRa1n:
I'm not sure if i understand you. So if you want to only be able to dive underwater with diving gear equipped that's not a feature i will implement because i don't see how it should be usefull.
In reply to meldexun:
The ocean is dead now. Even if you make something like ore at the bottom, you can dive there without a suit.
If you could add a shutdown of vanilla diving under water without diving equipment, you could at least somehow diversify the ocean.
Now, if I add your mod to the assembly, then I absolutely will not have the desire to create a suit, since I can dive with an ordinary bucket and infinite oxygen (yes, few people know this way). And now the question is why do you need a diving suit when you can sink to the bottom without it?
In reply to LastRa1n:
If you think the ocean is dead (which it mostly is) then why should you ever feel like you should go there (with or without a diving suit)?
Also the i think it would break the game. Because you wouldn't be able to even collect some clay from a river. Or what should happen if you jump in the water from a high place? You just stop at the water surface? Or what happens if you accidently get underwater because for example you break a block above you and then the water flows down.
So i still don't see a reason to add this feature. I will add more features to the oceans to hopefully make them less dead.
In the past i wanted to add ocean biomes to the game but that didn't work well unless i make a custom world generation type or a custom dimension. Also i would like deeper oceans but this also isn't really possible. Only in a custom dimension i could set the sea level to something like 200. But i more want to make the overworld oceans better instead of a dimension.
Possible to make it compatible to
"Controllable" mod by MrCrayfish?
In reply to bastigonz:
I don't have a controller so probably not.
What Kinds of Mobs do you want to add? Leviathans? I also think the prawn suit and big ore deposits would be really cool.
In reply to awesomekartoffel:
Yes, i would like to add leviahtans but i will take some time. The prawn suit won't come soon because i first want to add other things.
Does it add new diving/swimming animations?
Is it planned?
In reply to ivoramlug:
No, it does not add animations. Also i'm not thinking much about adding one because i focus more on adding actual features that affect gameplay.
hi,
I have testet the new GUI for Seamoth and the new GUI Animation for Oxygen and it works fantastic. It is more smoother as in the last versions and the new animation is the best what I have see. Thanks for this GUI addings.
