Hey... just a small suggestion of swim here, but perhaps it would make sense if you can't swim while wearing armour or if you are over 50% of the max weight you can carry. I'm not saying you should drown automatically, but rather you should perhaps be prevented from entering the water room as you were in the past. Thoughts?

Being above a certain weight or heavy armor should be determent to swim - increasing the number of MV required or something.

There shouldn't be a way to auto NOT enter a room with water in it. It's not fair for someone who is wearing something that would make it MORE DANGEROUS for them to not be able to enter rooms with water, whereas other people without that arm on would have to auto-enter those rooms (even if they have a low swim skill, etc.)

Well, perhaps a toggle then?

But really, if you're wearing armour or weighed down with mother heavy stuff, you're going to drown. I don't care how strong a swimmer you are, you are not going to keep yourself afloat with a hundred pounds of steel on you.

swim_travel, a toggle, is in the game now (if it wasn't as of this posting).
