I Can't Swim
I can't swim, because I don't have to. Walk on water like it's solid ground. Simple, clean, and surprisingly useful.
What It Does
Toggles the player between normal swimming and walking on the water surface. When active, the player stands and moves on top of waves as if they were on terrain — no swimming animation, no stamina drain, no wet debuffs.
Usage
| Action | Result |
|---|---|
| E (default) | Toggle water walking on/off |
| Toggle on while submerged | Character rises to the surface over ~2 seconds |
| Toggle on while above 10m over water | Blocked — "Can't water walk from up here!" |
| Walk onto land | Toggle off manually with E |
The mod auto-disables if the player drifts more than 10 meters above the water surface (e.g. on a mountain), so it won't go haywire on uneven coastal terrain.
Configuration
Found in BepInEx/config/YouDied.ICantSwim.cfg or via the Configuration Manager (F1 in-game if installed).

Notes
- Works on any body of water — oceans, rivers, lakes
- Status effects (wet) are suppressed while active
- Jumping works normally on the water surface
- Walk onto shore and press E to disable — there's no automatic shore detection
- The mod is designed for ocean-level water; behaviour at high-altitude water bodies may be unpredictable
