I was checking out the new reflection option for water... so I got really close and noticed that no matter how close I was to the water I wasn't dieing.. So I walked right in and what do you know... I was 20 feet underwater walking around taking no damage.
This needs to be fixed otherwise I guess we should have underwater battles.
also just noticed that the command to change the time env.time "Time" is not working after the update. Now I am under water and its dark..lol
EDIT::**
it has been fixed after manual update and restart of server. Not official server
They needs to know if this is on an official server or not?
Off to build my new base... I am Neptune, god of the sea!

This.
It was this way on the dev servers, so they are probably aware of it. I just assumed this was how it was going to be until the water got further rewrites.
I did die, after like 15 secs i walked into the water.
This was planned and just means rust is about to have a mutant baby.
Well.. Whats it like? Write a life's journal, and while your at it, go kill some sharks :wink:

Made my day.
I believe this is only in effect on dev server (beta update on steam needed). People were seeing how far out into the sea they could go lol
Water is working as intended. They mentioned it in the patch notes even.

This is why I don't accept second hand 'official' knowledge about changes.
Garry did not say that they turned off water damage. He said they redid the water visuals, and this was because in the future, the water will be important:
"We expect water to play a bigger role in the game as we push forward (instead of the death plane that it currently is)."
If they meant to turn it off, he wouldn't say as 'it currently is'.
He is in another thread asking about it as if it were not something they intended to do.
I rent a server. I saw the patch notes first thing this morning. Logged into control panel and saw they already updated my server. Logged on server and checked out new sky and reflections but noticed I did not have repair bench. Walked over to water to check reflection and noticed I was touching water and not taking damage or dead. So I went in further and was completely underwater for minutes.
had my host update and restart again and it fixed the problem. I can no longer go in water and I have the repair bench.
It was cool for a bit.
