How to glide?

[miofio]

I heard you can move without disturb the fish by gliding, so how do i glide? No matter how slowly I push the thumbstick, the fish immediately notices me. The fish doens't even move so I can't wait for the fish to go away

When you enter a new "pod" in Dark Bramble, your ship will always have a particular amount of momentum moving forward. Regardless of how fast you enter it, your ship will "glide" automatically; you don't actually need to move the stick at all, just let that momentum from entering the pod carry you until you're at a safe distance from any anglerfish.

but what i do when there is an angler fish blocking my way?

Unless you directly hit an anglerfish with your ship, it won't notice you as long as you're just "gliding," so you just gotta make sure you're not aiming your ship and thrusting in a direction that will cause that to happen.

It kinda sounds like you aren't that far in the game yet, so if you're having a lot of difficulty with Dark Bramble I really recommend exploring other parts of the solar system first; doing that might help you figure out what you need to do in Dark Bramble (including how to avoid the anglerfish more effectively).

The problem is if Anglerfish is blocking my way, i can't glide forward to reach the hole.

Normally the anglefish are not supposed to be in your path but at the edges. You have to make sure you are right at the center of the passage

you can move your ship with one or two lights, they don't notice unless you go full speed. push the ship to where you want to go and wait a short while

It's worth noting that keyboard controls are all-or-nothing, so you can't just give it "one bar of thrust". There is a mod that enables that, though.

In general, you should never be forced to maneuver around an anglerfish. Entering a seed will reorient you and give you a slight amount of momentum, so that you can drift.

I'd suggest shooting a scout at any of the points of light you see to make sure what it is first. After that, plot a path around the fish so you don't run into it.

This is not quite correct. If you are *close enough* then even a tiny amount of thrust will alert them. It's probably some kind of basic square or cube of the distance falloff in hearing the engine sound and some kind of exponential sound generation, but I'm not really about to measure it that closely.

The basic point is, if you can't see their teeth, you can push 1 or 2 lights on the thrust indicators safely, but if you're going to pass right between their lure light and their jaws then you better have the speed and angle to just sit tight for little bit. A couple hundred meters away seems enough to put on a steady 1-light thrust, which tbh is all you need, you can't go too fast without smashing into vines or other obstacles that come out of the fog at you.

You don't even have to push the stick, only let the motion move.
