This is a small update which contains basic snap turning for the Player and some fixes. The snap turning only works for the player at the moment. I might add support for vehicles if it is needed/requested.

SubmersedVR Version 0.1.0 - 2023-02-01 - First Alpha Release

This is the first alpha release of SubmersedVR, a mod aiming to make Subnautica an immersive VR experience by moderinizing its VR Support.

Features/Tweaks

• Support for motion controls using the SteamVR API/Runtime
  • This means you need to start the game using the SteamVR/OpenVR runtime. The Oculus Runtime won't work and is not supported!
    • For Airlink Users: You can force the SteamVR runtime by adding -vrmode openvr to the launch options in steam and launching it via SteamVR.
  • There are default bindings for Oculus Touch and Valve Index Controllers. If you don't have these controllers you will have to make your own bidings. Feel free to submit those in an issue of pull request!
• UI and PDA was adapted to be more usable in VR
  • Added a laserpointer that aims using the right controller
    • The aim direction changes dependent on the tool and is 45° by default for bare hands.
  • QuickSlots are configured in the PDA and are not visible in the HUD
• A Replacement for the QuickSlots that is inspired by the HL: Alyx Menu(Video Demo)
  • To use it hold the right thumbstick and flick in the direction of the tool.
  • Same thing for Seamoth modules. Select the Upgrade and the press the AltTool Action(Bound to A by default).
• The HUD is fixed/static when driving vehicles

Known Issues/Limitations

This release is far from perfect, but polished enough to get some initial feedback and to have some fun.
The following issues are still present in this release and will be fixed in a later update.

Don't pause while loading!

The game can break if you open your SteamVR dashboard when loading a game.
You will have to restart the game when that happens. It's a known issue and will be fixed soon.

No Roomscale Support(yet)

If you move around your playspace you will notice that if you rotate the player using the thumbstick it rotates yourself weirdly from the center of the playspace.
You can workaround by recentering, whenever you are walking too far from the old center of your play space. Will be fixed very soon.

No virtual keyboard yet

Changing the names of lockers or beacons is not supported yet. Adding a virtual keyboard will be done in one of the next releases.

Button Prompts are wrong

The Button prompts you are seeing on your right hand are not representing the SteamVR Actions, used by the game.
Always refer to your SteamVR bindings to see how to control the game. This might be improved in a future update aswell.
