Is there any way to move in water faster?

[Bonkers]

I settled down at an underwater Hyotl city and get quests to kill divers in a ruin at the other side of the planet all the time. Since it takes a lot of time to get there, I wondered of there is any way to move under water faster. Is there a way?

there's a upgrade for the morph ball called aqua sphere and it allows you to move significantly quicker and more mobile when used underwater

Aqua sphere is misleading; it works above water. It floats.

really? I used it about an hour ago and when I use it underwater I move really fast and I dont float whatsoever .___.

*edit again* It didnt make me float whatsoever I fell like a stone when I activated it underwater

Double check your tech.

You can drive the Hoverbike perfectly underwater. Its faster than trying to swim

im using the water sphere and when I morph on land then dive into water I just fall and actually take fall damage.

I dont float, not nutin

*edit* and then the water sphere links to the previous pile of crap I said before

yes but it also makes you bouyant so your always going strait up until you hit the water surface,works there tho.

That's not how Aqua Sphere (the vanilla tech) is supposed to work.

Do you have any mods installed that make changes to techs? Other than bugs, that's the only cause I can imagine would remove the buoyancy from the Aqua Sphere.

P.S.: Apparently Steam's profanity filter doesn't like somebody's name, and it causes the formatting to break until the name is changed to something that isn't profane.

some mods like expolorer pods are good. can fly and go under water.

hoverbikes move fast underwater at the bottom

Nice. Double necro.

There's also a stim that you can craft I believe (unsure if it's because of the frackin' universe mod I'm using or not) that will drastically increase your swimming speed.

Aka Aqua ball

When you're in Aqua ball, you surface three times faster than your swim power.

So you can increase your speed by using the ball. When the sea floor heads down, you dive. When the sea floor goes up, you aqua ball.

ye but that sucks. Why didn't they simply let the aqua ball move faster through water not above it

with hoverbike seems best solution, a bit clunky but faster than any other options. With flag takes some time and building a tunnel across the ocean sounds really proffessional but not worth the time.

reef cola is nice but slower than the hoverbike

Explorer pods mod. Fast as a hoverbike, but can fly, and swim. They're expensive but totally worth it.
