Sponge's Movement Tweaks

Swimming that is not a chore, and an optional launch jump.

What it does

Swimming. You swim faster and sink more slowly while treading water. Both are adjustable and both are on by default.

The speed change works through the game's own movement system rather than overwriting your velocity after the fact. In practice that means acceleration still eases in and out the way it normally does, so entering and leaving water feels like the stock game rather than snapping between two speeds.

Launch jump. Off by default. Turn it on and firing a weapon shoves you away from the shot, so you can launch yourself by firing at the ground. It triggers on a round actually leaving the weapon, not on the fire button, so a dry click or a shot during a reload does not launch you.

When you want it

Swimming is for anyone who finds crossing water tedious — it is a comfort change and most people will want it on. The launch jump is a movement toy: turn it on if you want to get somewhere quickly and do not mind the weapon feeling different.

Keys

None of its own. Both features are always active once enabled, and its settings live on the Movement tab in Sponge's Mod Menu, which opens on F5.

Settings

Swimming

Setting Default What it does
Enabled on Turn swimming changes on or off.
Speed multiplier 1.6 How much faster you swim. 1 is unchanged.
Sink multiplier 0.5 How fast you sink treading water. Below 1 sinks slower.

Launch jump

Setting Default What it does
Enabled off Firing shoves you away from the shot.
Force 9 How hard a shot shoves you.
Upward bias 0.25 Extra straight-up push, so a ground shot lifts rather than skids.
Airborne only off Only launch while off the ground.

The force means the same thing regardless of your character's weight, so the number does not need re-tuning if the game changes.

Multiplayer

Everything here affects only the player at your keyboard. Nothing is sent over the network and no other player's movement is touched, so you can use it in any lobby without affecting anyone else and without needing them to have it installed. Your position is replicated by the game as usual, so others simply see you swim faster.

Compatibility

If something else is also changing swim speed, the two would multiply together into a speed neither was set to, so one of them has to win.

You may find water slower than you expect if you also run a cheat mod. A cheat's swim speed is typically far higher than the comfortable pace this aims for, and if it stands down in favour of this mod you get this mod's number instead. Raise Speed multiplier to taste — it goes up to 8 — or tell the cheat mod to keep ownership.
