I get that as
Jace
well.
Snutt
I have a technical question, I think.
You know, there's been like a bug where sometimes when you're swimming, suddenly you just like fall and you're like walking underneath the water.
How does that work?
Is it like a volume that you set up?
Hannah
Yeah, so we have to set up these water volumes, which are invisible.
So water itself doesn't do anything.
It's just a plane with a material on it, essentially.
So the volumes we have to put underneath when it's deep enough that a character can swim.
And if the volume doesn't fit the water plane that we've set, then sometimes that can happen
Jace
where
Hannah
the water extends beyond the volume.
They're not the same thing.
Snutt
They're
Hannah
separate things.
So that happens.
Jace
There you are.
The burning question.
We'll do the last one and then we'll move on.
