Water Mod + Lava

(While the current water mod is being fixed)
Work In Progress - don't expect this to replace the current Water Mod!
The original: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2757919307

An experimental alteration of the original Water Mod.
Any features not present in the original water mod might be discontinued.

All wheels should be able to paddle through water, should help with the early-game puddle struggle.

GSO 1-5 Air Tanks - Use these lightweight tanks to float on water.
Be wary - they are slightly weaker than your typical block!
GSO Ebb-n-Flow prop - A dinky prop that should be enough to go places in the water.
GSO Pulse prop - A more powerful prop to push larger techs through the water!


This version runs a less precise flotation formula on Techs to save on computer performance.
The water is rendered on a per-tile basis, meaning they handle LOD based on the distance from the player.
Most front-mounted propellers have bonus thrust running backwards in water.
The bug where the ship violently jolts when travelling far distances has been resolved. (the particles were not though!)
For large builds I have seen around a 3x framerate increase.
This does not apply to loose blocks, projectiles, or resources at the moment!

There are sounds for splashing down and moving around in water, adjustable with NativeOptions and ConfigHelper installed.

Destructive lava is also included as a fun alternative, don't touch the lava!

Adds really deep oceans below the typical terrain levels.
Currently the biomes attached are being tweaked so do not use it in any save you want to keep!
There might be special coral and ore down here one day, we shall see...
Do not enable in campaign or Multiplayer!

Respawn in as a ship if you land in the waters.
Enemies can spawn as dangerous boats in water too.
