How to make a swimming pool?

A nice swimming pool with multiple depths and a working diving board with swimming function

I think you could make something with barriers to change the color corresponding to the depth, for the diving board, you could hide a sentry and have yourself at high fragility?

Maybe that could work but I want you to be able to clime up and jump in

okay, this might be memory intensive but if you have one side of the pool covered with zones and barriers, and activat the barrier upon player entering zone, you could make the illusion of climbing up.

not sure how to do this maybe we can make this a platformer?

So, you want to make the swimming pool a platformer?
You could use terrain to build the pool shape.

  • Add a barrier over the pool area.
  • Disable collision so players can pass through.
  • Change the color to something water-like (blue).
  • Optionally, disable the outline for a cleaner look.

I guess? I presume for the board it needs to be in a platformer so you can climb up.

picture please thanks

Maybe something like this:

Maybe layered invisible barriers? since it’s a platformer.


I kinda took inspiration from Nitram…
Just tweaked it a bit.
The white blocks are the floor.

"whats the first thing you think of when someone says, Olympics?

well, considering the stats, SWIMMING!

swimming is basically the number one watched sport on the Olympics, I mean, it makes sense, it just sounds like it would ok maybe not but whatever, sue me

So, I will teach you how to make swimming in Gimkit


OK, well, starting off, let me explain to you what you’ll be making:

so in swimming we’re gonna make a diving board

(out of asphalt terrain, make sure its at floor setting)

then, put down a lot of water terrain in a straight line

then, put barriers around the diving board

next, put down a series of repeaters and set it to 1 second in between each thing, then wire each one to a text device that says “3, 2, 1, GO!” to make the starting thing

Make sure to wire the last repeater that makes the “GO!” visible to the barrier in front of the diving board to let the player swim


make sure there’s a camera view

add a teleporter to the diving board, and wire the teleporter thats on the diving board to start the repeaters

put down a speed modifier to set the speed of the player slower when “GO!” is visible, you can add a shop to make the player faster, and get coins to spend it on speed

And finally, you can repeat this step multiple times for multiple lanes to 1v1, 1v1v1, 1v1v1v1, etc. anyone for a fun challenge!
