📋 About This Mod
!(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Meldexun/BetterDiving/master/pictures/better_diving_logo.png) Better Diving is an overhaul of the vanilla diving experience modeled on the game Subnautica.
Feature highlights: - reworked movement in water (no automatic sinking, swim in the direction you are looking, ...) - reworked oxygen system (dive for up to 45 seconds instead of 15 seconds, ...) - breaking speed in/under water is equal to breaking speed outside of water - use diving equipment to move faster, mine faster and dive longer
