Stuttering >80m depth (seed pods)

[Mobi]

The game stutters badly when diving for seeds, even though I'm within my depth range. Also , while using a game pad its almost impossible to get out of the seed pod, the character wont swim down (even if you use CRTL) while holding a cube. This makes the game very tiring and may kill it for me as you cant even to do the basics. Please fix the underwater movement to make it more playable with a gamepad.

update - the sea is now stuttering when on deck and looking down, but only very slightly and I can also confirm the major stutter is only when near seed pods.

Update - with respect to exiting the seed pods, the gamepad crouch (left stick button) works much better, don't use keyboard, I just wish they would add the 'white' control information when swimming, on the bottom left, so people know what the controls are.

I'm using a 5070Ti in DLSS quality mode with typical 80-100FPS when the game is working correctly, The stutter only happens when diving deep.

I also have massive stuttering near underwater seed pods.

But it is not because of depth. I was in 130m on some location with no problems.
There seems to be some issue with those seed pods.
All of them are doing it and as soon as I go far enough from them stuttering stops.

With keyboard I am able to get seeds out despite those constant freezes every second.

Same, approaching a seed pod at any depth creates stutter.

Same here, as soon as i get close to a seed pod the game starts stuttering.

It's the same for me...
