Well, Link kinda swims... (I am using build 798)
I have made this river (obviously swimmable). You can go into the water, but when you sit still, there is no animation for Link. He just sits there with a water ring around him. That's not right.
Also, when you try to move while in the water, Link's sprite alternately switches between his walking and swimming animation each frame. So it looks like Link is being jerked in and out of the water... constantly.
And what's weirder is that you can use items while you're swimming! I don't know why/how/what caused the problem. All I can think the problem could spawn from is:
1) I have altered the Gravity constants. I need too; otherwise, the Roll script I have will not work.
2) I have a global script (besides the roll script which is also global) in my quest... Here both of them are, but I doubt they are the problem...
Both of those codes are not mine, by the way. They are made by ShadowMancer and Beefster, respectively.
And I have not put in any other scripts, whether they be FFC or Item, into my quest yet.
I haven't read of any problems that have to do with swimming concerning these two scripts, but you never know.
The third problem could be:
A bug. An annoying and needless bug.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and why would there be a bug where there has not been one? I don't know either.

That was my post from Quest Editor. But I think I may have found another thing that could be the problem...
That 'main_script' at the top of the code is supposed to contain all your global scripts (so that stuff will happen while the advanced shop script runs [I got the main_script from the advanced shop script made by ShadowMancer] ... It's at AGN if anyone wants to look at the whole thing)
Just imagine that whole Roll script inside the 'main_script'. It doesn't compile. I don't know why.
I tried taking out the 'main_script' but Link still can't swim.
And another break-through I found out: Link does NOT roll! He used to. I don't know why he doesn't now.
Any help!? I am rather overwhelmed by this whole problem and very confused... Any help at all would be immensely appreciated!!
