Chillet Is A Water Mount - Chillet as real water pal

Chillet is a water mount

Chillet and Chillet Ignis are recognised as real water pals

[hr][/hr]

The problem

From the game data:

• Chillet — swim 1350, swim dash 1890
• Surfent (an official water mount) — swim 900, swim dash 1440

Chillet swims faster than the water mounts do And it is faster in water (1890) than on land (1050)

The swimming animation is a real one too A land pal in deep water flails and barely keeps itself up Chillet winds through it It has a saddle, and it can already sprint on the surface in vanilla

All because the game files list it as GroundOnly

So its stamina drains just from floating For a land pal that makes sense, it is struggling to stay up But Chillet swims faster and more comfortably than it runs, and gets tired anyway And without the water mount flag, fishing and salvage on the water are off

The fix

Every pal has a MovementType value The game decides from that one value whether a pal is a swimmer This changes Chillet from GroundOnly to Swim, the same value Surfent has

• No stamina drain on the water
• Fishing works from the saddle
• Salvage works from the saddle
• Wild Chillet and Chillet Ignis go in the water too
• Alpha versions included

No stat changes, no speed changes, no new items, no unlocks Chillet swims exactly as fast as it did before Only the classification is fixed

Why only Chillet

Making any pal a water mount is not hard, it is just unconvincing Chillet is the one pal where the animation, the saddle and the speed are all there and only the classification is wrong So Chillet is all this touches

Settings

Nothing to configure Setting DEBUG to true on the first line of [code]Scripts\main.lua[/code] logs each conversion to UE4SS.log

[hr][/hr]

If nothing happens

Restart the game first Mods are only loaded at startup Installing while the game is running does nothing for that session

If it still does not work set DEBUG to true on the first line of main.lua and search UE4SS.log for lines beginning with [noparse][ChilletIsAWaterMount][/noparse] If there are none, switch the mod on in the game's Mod Menu

Notes

Nothing is written to your save or to the game files One value is written when a pal is created, and that is all
