Configuration

Anchor behavior
- In auto-anchor-mode, the anchor will be dropped automatically when the player leaves the vehicle and retrieved when the player enters the vehicle
- In manual-anchor-mode, a key must be pressed (while inside of the boat) to drop or retrieve the anchor. If anchor key is pressed while driving, the vehicle will perform an emergency stop.
- Auto-anchor-mode and manual-anchor-mode can also be configured to be used simultaneously (check configuration file)
Known Issues
When a submersible is anchored submerged, it can be difficult to get back in, because the game expects the vehicle at sea level which can cause some animation glitches when trying to enter the vehicle. To workaround this issue you can hold down the 'Enter-vehicle' key on your keyboard or controller to get teleported to the driver seat of the nearest anchored submersible.
