Abyssal Depths
ABy AladarCZ
Expansion of ocean exploration. Diving suits and depth mechanics.
Description
NotPossible and AladarCZ present you Abyssal Depths!
A mod which adds pressure mechanics and three tiers of suits with diving mechanics such as seabed walking and extended oxygen capacity. Hopefully eventually greatly expanding underwater gameplay.
Notes:
- Mod is still very much in development
- Development is slow due to me working on other mods
- If you want to discuss this mod directly with the devs, drop by the Abyssal Depths thread in the Vintage Story discord
Currently Added:
Diving Suits
- Three tiers of diving suits
- Canvas Diving Suit
- Standard Diving Suit
- Atmospheric Diving Suit
- Each increasingly more resistant to water pressure, allowing you to go deeper
Flippers
- Three tiers of flippers
- Wood
- Leather
- Sturdy leather
- Each increasing swim speed further when worn
New Materials
Craft specialized materials and find proper schematic to craft mentioned suits
- Heavy Canvas (and its treated variants) (Historically used for diving suits)
- Waxed Cloth (Inner suit lining)
- Reinforced Plate (High tier seawater resistant material)
- Diving Gear schematic (aquirable in newly generated ruins or by treasure trader)
New Mechanics
Enjoy new perks! Defy new dangers!
- Seabed Walking
- While equipped with weighted suit parts, you will be able to walk while underwater
- Extended breathing
- While equipped with full suit of diving gear (of the same tier) you will be able to breath underwater for much longer periods of time
- Barotrauma
- Beware! Going deep underwater without proper protection can damage you! Diving Suits are necessary to go into the deep ocean for an extended period of time. Keep in mind that going beyond the safe depth of diving suit will strain your suit! Staying too deep with an improper suit tier will result in dire consequences!
Config
The mod currently has a few configurable options, such as disabling pressure, changing the safe depth, and allowing for schematic crafting. If there are features you dislike or numbers you want to tweak but aren't able to let me know so I can add it.
Compatibility
- Fully compatible with Combat Overhaul Fork

Roadmap
- Descend from anywhere in the ocean via boat with a rope or diving bell
- Spearguns and Harpoon Guns
- New light sources capable of working deep underwater
- Shader overlays when wearing diving helmets
- Reasons to explore the deep ocean
- Ocean horrors
