📋 About This Mod
This mod is no longer required in the latest version of Subnautica since there is now an option in the game menu to toggle sprinting. I will leave the mod up for anyone who is still running the legacy version of Subnautica.
Just tap the sprint button while moving to start sprinting and tap again to turn off sprinting. Sprinting is also automatically turned off if you stop moving.
If you have any problems with the mod please let me know and if you like it, an endorsement would be appreciated.
INSTALLATION:
1. Download and install QModManager
2. Extract the BetterSprinting folder from this zip file into the QMods folder in your Subnautica installation folder.
3. Run the game and check if the mod was successfully installed. There should now be an option under General in options to toggle sprinting.
To remove the mod, just delete the BetterSprinting folder from your QMods folder in your Subnautica installation.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 507 endorsements and over 14k downloads.
- Toggle sprint is a game-changer for gamepad players—no more thumb cramps.
- Sprinting with tools equipped is a nice QoL boost for resource gathering.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in August 2022—may be outdated for the current game version.
- Only two features: toggle sprint and tool sprinting—if you don't need those, it's a pass.
For gamepad players who hate holding the sprint button and want a more relaxed playstyle. Also for anyone who wants to sprint while mining or chopping. Skip if you're fine with default sprinting and don't use tools often.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the in-game settings under General after installing to enable the toggle sprint option.
- If you're on a server, make sure the mod is installed on both client and server for it to work.
- Since the mod is from 2022, test it in a single-player world first to ensure it works with your current game version.
