This mod gives you control over your roll while swimming, using the Seaglide, or piloting a Seamoth. Normally your roll is stabilized at these times, but this mod removes that, so you are in charge of your roll. This allows the player to perform maneuvers such as vertical U-turns and loops, and it corrects the Seamoth from rapidly twisting when looking straight up or down. While swimming, this mod allows the diver complete freedom of rotation.
There are many settings available in the mod options menu under the heading "Roll Controls."

Future Work
- []Currently, these are digital controls, but in a future update I would like to add generic analog axis controls.
- I would like to rotate the body more cleverly so that the scuba roll unlimited option can be upgraded away.
