Summary0000331: Customize Water Physics through something like MapInfo
DescriptionMetroid Dreadnought has a character who is supposed to sink instead of swim, and I know a few other WADs have had to tackle this. The current workaround involves making non-water 3D floors and screwing with their gravity, and if you're feeling fancy, using ACS for other effects. Maybe MapInfo should have a set of settings to control the water physics?

Specifically what I'd want is PlayerCanSwim, WaterMovementSpeed, and WaterGravity...
Steps To ReproduceThe current workaround involves making non-water 3D floors and screwing with their gravity, and if you're feeling fancy, using ACS which checks to see when you enter and exit the water. I'm worried that these workarounds may break with later changes, and they certainly aren't as nimble as just defining it in Mapinfo would be.

Sonic Robo Blast 2 resorts to making its own version of the engine.

No matter how many reports you will create it won't change anything.
Graf stated this pretty clearly in your previous request of the same feature.

...those were posting? I looked back, didn't see them, and thought I just hadn't posted them like I thought...

I guess I'll stop posting them then...

Sorry about that... I guess when you close them, it stops showing them in the list of my posts...

Edit: Ok, yeah, apparently it's set to hide my posts from me when I post by default... :\

Most likely you don't see them because of your filter setting. Old issues 307 and 310 are still there.

@_mental_: This is one thing that the relationship system is good for. I added them in for you.

@RockstarRaccoon: Even if such threads were mysteriously deleted, it's pretty bad form to go reposting them like that. Nevertheless, as pointed out, they weren't, and it is still kind of rude to do that. The tracker is not for pestering devs who do not want to implement your issue.
