Simple Dive Gear
by Rohzek
Simple Dive Gear adds deep sea and lava diving suits that let players swim in place and breathe underwater.
What it does
The mod adds two suits of equipment: a deep sea diving set and a lava diving set. Wearing either suit outside its liquid slows movement and makes mining harder. Inside the matching liquid, the wearer can swim in place, break blocks at a normal speed and breathe underwater. A deep sea upgrade improves visibility underwater. Simple Dive Gear runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it. Forge and NeoForge builds cover 1.18.1 – 1.21.3, and the code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which makes it open source.
Key features
Deep sea diving suit
A suit that lets the wearer breathe underwater and swim in place with reliable control.

Underwater visibility upgrade
An optional upgrade for the deep sea suit that makes it easier to see while underwater.
