How to Make a Swimming System in Unreal Engine 5

[@stevenkearney9629]

If you want your character to overlap with an offset as to not start swimming the second you touch water, go into your 'WaterBodyOcean' blueprint (or whatever you called it) and search for 'Collision Height Offset'. Set this to a negative value. Now you can trigger the swim once your body is submerged.

[@Eqqs]

Where do you add that? And what to set the Target as?

[@OzarksVHS]

@@Eqqs Once you're in the BP described in the guide, just make sure to select the first item in the "components" outliner (it'll say (self) at the end of whatever you named it). Now, in the details panel I searched for 'height offset' and found the setting that way. I set it to -100 and it works great.

[@Eqqs]

@@OzarksVHS Thanks a lot. As a Unity developer it is challenging and confusing to move to a new engine and the guides and people like you make it easier.

[@BR1.618]

Problem is that it also sets the underwater post process effect to that same level. Edit: I made a different solution. I made a socket for the pelvis, and stored its Z value when touching the water. Then I made a loop that checks the difference between the start of the Z value, to the current Z value. When the difference reached a number which is above the target depth, the loop stops and executes Start Swimming.

[@KaitheArtGuy]

@@OzarksVHS Thanks to both of you!

[@OzarksVHS]

Just a quick tip for everyone asking about animations: Mixamo offers a "treading water" that's a good idle, and using their sliders system you can take their standard swimming animation and save it as various speeds.

[@studiobaxter1242]

Thanks. It works. For those having problems with the character floating over the land on exiting the water, this was a better solution for me: Go into your water body blueprint. Scroll to 'collision presets', and change it from 'water body collisions' to 'custom'. Scroll down and set the collision responses manually to 'ignore', except for 'world dynamic', 'pawn' and 'physics body'. Set those to overlap. Also if your character is jumping out of the water and then sinking: - After your initial input/axis and then branch to true, add a 'Set Movement' node, and set it to 'swimming'. Then connect to the 'add movement input. Then at the end of your Start Swimming function, add the 'set movement' node again, and set to swimming. Out of that node add a 'set gravity scale' node and set it to something like 20. This will keep your character from swimming out of the water, but it won't sink to the bottom either. Don't forget to reset the gravity back to normal on stop swimming. I also set and reset the capsule radius to smaller and found this helped some more with when the character transitions from water to land.

[@Ckinproduction]

So I have done what you recommended and it is working pretty well. Thank you so much! One thing though, after making the gravity adjustment it did fix the swimming out of the water then falling back in. However, there is a bit of bobbing when you swim at the surface, and if you stop swimming at just the right moment, it sinks you down really fast. Any ideas on how to prevent this?

[@studiobaxter1242]

@@Ckinproduction I have the same thing so far. It's not too bad so I was going to live with it, being a noob.

[@studiobaxter1242]

@@Ckinproduction I know there are ways to know what angle your character is, which I'm sure would be part of the solution here but I don't know enough about it yet. If you can work out the angle and momentum of your character whilst swimming you might be able to solve it.

[@Ckinproduction]

@@studiobaxter1242 I’m pretty new to UE. But I have been able to figure out most programming problems I have been faced with. So, hopefully I will find a fix. If you by chance find a solution, let me know. It would be much appreciated.

[@Ckinproduction]

@@studiobaxter1242your solution works well. The character at least doesn’t come out of the water and fall back in there is just a very very slight amount of Bobbing and if you stop moving at just the right second the character drops way down in the water. But never leaves the swimming animation.

[@kevin-hw6er]

For those who have trouble about character sinking, that's because Launch Character will change character to falling state. Just Replace Launch Character with Add Movement Input and Set Movement Mode to swimming behind. And in stop swimming, Set Movement Mode back to walking

[@hitnrun66]

Thank you SO MUCH you saved me hours of research for something so simple lol. How did you end up figuring this out?

[@Dan-codes]

I heart you.

[@jd-foo]

As an improvement you could use a dedicated collision to check the overlap with the water, maybe at the chest or shoulders level.

"The animation is in the description!" The Link In Description: a pack of 2,548 animations with no distinct names. For any folks just interested in what animations relate its the ones labeled 125_XX up to 126_XX. Bro it's one animation in an open license. Would it have been that hard to take the one you got, export to fbx from unreal and plop it in in any of thousands of file uploading websites available? Welp, thanks for the link to free mocap I guess. Still the laziest thing i've ever seen in my life. Buh eh you got some quick easy content out of this one! 20 minutes out of a 5 minute implementation is pretty impressive.

[@Xtynger]

he is literally giving out 2500 animations for literally free and you complain about it? you HAVE to be joing fr

[@dracofells5390]

@xtynger1236 He's not giving anyone anything. The animations are a free pack someone else made, someone else packaged and distributed. I'm not complaining about how it was packaged, I'm criticizing the youtubers delivery of information. I mean my comment doesn't really even make sense outside the context of this tutorial. The lacking names is really only a problem when you need the specific ones he uses here. Without those it's kinda annoying to dig through over 2000+ animations when you only want like 3.

[@julienteral9140]

Would love an updated version of this tutorial where you optimize certain features, no more jittering, smoother swim to run transition when coming out of the water. Also i have a bug where if i jump into the water & hit the bottom of the landscape my character just disapears & im forced to restart the game ;( Love this tutorial tho, thank u so much & hoping to see more ;)

[@rocketpoweredchimpgamesphi7798]

I had jittering (looked like character was having a fit!) on both swimming AND treading water, I found that setting the "Update Overlaps" flag on the "Set Capsule Half Height" node at the end in the StopSwimming event seems to have fixed it (touch wood) for now! His "infinite loop" error that he didn't explain WHY he turned off the overlap update is possibly due to resetting the capsule height then causing another Begin (or End) Overlap event to be generated!?

[@vibi1n]

Can this be updated for UE5.4? It has a different movement input system where it uses a singular enhanced input action and it doesn't have a singular axis value. I found a kind of a workaround to this specific issue. But now I have another problem: When I connect the actor begin overlap node to another node (exec), my water is invisible. If I don't touch the blueprint and leave it empty, water works normally.

[@tylergerhart4806]

There is 2 movement inputs in the character blurprint. there is left/right and forward/backwards. I was confused for days. Its in the same string from inputs. You want to spice in at the forward/backwards section. Its after the second (add movement input) add your branch there.i would show a screenshot but cant. Let me know if i can help. I feel ya bro it took days to figure out

[@tylergerhart4806]

Its at 3:58 is forward/backwards is on top and left/right is below it. Then use the vector that is going into (add movement) into your branched one. Im using 5.4 so i kniw what your looking at. Hope it helps

This tutorial is awesome! I had the same issue as other viewers with the character sinking after getting into the water. I found that in the Character BP, after you set IsSwimming to true, drag a Set Movement Mode node and change the New Movement Mode to "Swimming." And after you set IsSwimming to false, drag a Set Movement Mode node and change the New Movement Mode back to "Walking." This fixed the issue for me.

When I swim up to the surace of the water I go back to walking for a second and slightly launched out of the water, but when I go back into the water and back to swimming, I drop all the way down to the ground at the bottom of the water (as if effected by normal gravity, not the swimming/water lightweight effect). Id there a way to fix this or did I do something wrong?

[@GorkaGames]

Hi, so first of all try this, in the start swimming event, on the Launch Character node, make the force multiplier a ver very small number, like 0.1. 8:56 , this will probably solve the issue of launching the character. Then about the player dropping to the bottom, try to change the gravity scale when we start swimming, using the "Set Gravity Scale" node. Let me know if this helps!!

[@TopHatTim123]

@@GorkaGames The gravity scale idea worked great, and I fall much slower, but I still sink all the way to the bottom after I jump out of the water.

Also, I continuously get this error while playing: Blueprint Runtime Error: "Accessed None trying to read property BP Third Person Character".

Wanted to start out by saying this has been the easiest tutorial I have found for swimming on KZbin as well as the forums. It works MOSTLY as it should. With that said, I am struggling with the same issue someone else in the comments had where if you go up to the surface you immediately sink down. I tried fiddling with gravity and the force values but they don't seem to effect it immedietly sinking down. It seems like a quick fix but how exactly can I stop that from happening?

[@GorkaGames]

Hmm.. Try to add a small delay when you call the "Stop Swimming" event. It might be that it desables the water volume trigger too quick and the character`s capsule might be slightly under the ground, so it sinks.

[@starmangalaxyyy1710]

​@@GorkaGames The delay in theory works, but it applies to every time they leave the water. And I cant find a good balance on how long to make the delay. For example: if I make it too short, it still applies normal gravity when I leave the water in most instances. If I make it too long, it fixes the other issue but now makes the player fly for that amount of delay when leaving the water.

Has anyone done swimming in lyra?

Wooww.. Following this tutorial really messed up my level. I'd advise to save a Version before trying.

Mobiles don't support Water plugin. So how to create this system based on custom water material

UPDATED TUTORIAL: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWHPo6COjNGZhbc for those having issues with the new enhanced input

[@decayedwolf1997]

I have an issue where my character won't stop swimming when I exit the water. How do I fix this? I'm on 5.1 if it matters.

[@studiobaxter1242]

See my solution above.

[@bradennichols3154]

I did all this and everything works. But 2 problems. When character enters water and goes into swimming animation the controls switch. Forward is now the D key. W and S do not do anything. The A key reverses direction. ??? Problem 2... I drop a new lake into the map and created the blueprint for it, and character just runs through it. No swimming animation. I'm using 5.1. Also when I get out of water and back on land the controls revert back to normal. Lol also the main state machine is showing a warning

[@Masterbleu1]

seems if we are using 5.1 we are out of luck for help with this.

[@bradennichols3154]

@@Masterbleu1 I'm sure it has something to do with the enhanced ai input system

[@bradennichols3154]

@@Masterbleu1 I unhooked the x y axis target. I can now use w a s d to move forward lol. The mouse controls the direction I'm moving in.

[@rocketpoweredchimpgamesphi7798]

Anyone else have a problem with the character "sinking to the depths" of the ocean while swimming and then seemingly bouncing off the underside of the surface to the bottom again immediately if u use the standard player controller? :o(

why does my character stay on the water? I have collisions off

[@nickreisser6142]

I also have this problem😢

[@YoungDragonZ]

you have to set the collisions to Overlap instead of turning it off

[@natreextv8516]

On my way, the character drop into the bottom of the lake and then start swim... that weird

Hmm, have you created the water blueprint for the ocean?
