Will oceans be swimable in the vacation GP?
Since there's a strong evidence that the next GP is tropical vacation, then the main feature (swimming in the ocean) should be questioned.. https://i.imgur.com/rP0uvQQ.jpg We know from this pic th...

I mean, I have no experience in game development, but if they already have the programming for ocean/lake swimming, how hard would it be to retroactively apply it to previous worlds? If the water's too shallow, the world people can adjust it to make it swimmable and make sure the swimming programming can be copied over
I really hope so because some people said some Guru tweeted that they can't figure how to make old worlds water bodies swimable (I think I saw the tweet somewhere but that was months ago)
It's not that they can't figure it out. But they've said multiple times that it's highly unlikely for them to retroactively make bodies of water in the old worlds routable and that they'd rather add it with newer worlds from the ground up. So I'll assume the amount of work they'd have to put into it is too much to justify changing the worlds on this scale. I do recall there being talk of messing up existing saves but I'm not sure how much that actually plays a role. However it would fit into their struggles with expanding existing worlds and existing world maps which is why we have stuff like Magnolia Promenade and Newcrest.
