| Summary | 0000949: Can't dive/surface in water deeper than 2 Z-levels | ||||
| Description | When swimming through a lake, I have discovered that if you try to dive down ('>') and the water is deeper than 2 Z-levels, it won't do anything. When I attempt to dive under in 2 Z-level depth water, it works fine. There are also problems with surfacing using '<' if you are below 2 Z-levels of water. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Find a deep lake and swim over to a spot that is deeper than 2 Z-levels of water. If you hang out at the ramp-edge, you can test all the movement combinations like I did in the Additional Information. | ||||
| Additional Information | When I walked up to the edge going down from the second Z-level to the third Z-level, I am blocked from moving swimming above the ramp. If I do an alt-move, I am presented with three options: [direction]-above, [direction] and [direction]-below. All three of these options work correctly. If I choose to move [direction]-below, then I cannot surface ('<'), but I can move normally on the same (3rd) Z-level. If I chose [direction], then I can use '<' to surface, but I cannot use '>' to dive down. If I chose [direction]-above, I am at the surface and cannot dive down using '<' at all. (Untested) I don't know if the first Z-level of water stops you from falling. If not, this means that if you fell into water deeper than 2 Z-levels of water, your character couldn't swim up unless you find a ramp to 2 Z-level deep water in time... | ||||

>If I chose [direction], then I can use '<' to surface, but I cannot use '>' to dive down. A correction: yes, you can use '>' or '<' normally if you are on the second Z-level. |

Another thing I noticed is that if you have an air tile above the water you are swimming in and try to swim into a water tile that doesn't have air above it (this example, I was swimming in an underground cavern), it blocks you with no message. I think this is intentional, but it is probably related to the above bug. What it should do in the cave would be to give a prompt: "You are swimming into a cavern with no air pockets. Do you really want to continue?" If you are underwater already, it shouldn't care... |

Did you try using the alt key plus the > or whatever? |

@smjjames: Did you try using the alt key plus the > or whatever? Yeah, tried that. They both do nothing as far as I can tell. |

It seems if you have no swimming skill in the most recent versions (.19 and previous) you cannot escape from water using ramps while drowning. Also, moving carefully down a ramp (alt direction to the down ramp, select direction/below) into water stuns you. A couple versions previously (with swimming skill), I was able to swim down, but not swim back up. |

Tested and confirmed for 0.40.19 As a Grand Master swimmer I could use a ramp to automatically move down to the 2nd underwater Z level and use it to go back up again. I could not dive underwater from the surface above 3 levels of water. I could also not surface from the 2nd underwater level without using the ramps. |
