How do we make swimmable water? (Not Terrain Water)
I keep trying to make swimmable water in Roblox, and then it just turns into a failure. The animations won't work nor the user input service. I'm trying to make the water where you can basically swim dive down w/ shift and go up w/ space. Just doesn't work.

I answered this question a long time ago on the developer forum, so here's the gist:
You use a BodyVelocity with the MaxForce on each axis set to math.huge and set the Velocity property to the current MoveDirection of their Humanoid (for this to work easily with mobile / console users too) multiplied by a desired speed (I used 16) to get the velocity. You just need to integrate diving / surfacing by using UserInputService to detect inputs and apply to the velocity, like:
local UP = 0
local Down = 0
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.SpaceBar then
UP = 1
elseif input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then
Down = 1
end
end)
-- // Handle InputEnded event and set the variables to 0 if the keys have been released
local y = UP - Down
BodyVel.Velocity = TargetedVelocity + Vector3.new(0, y, 0)
Doing this will give you the same results I did in this place long ago and even Flood Escape 2's
