Instructions
see the demo for the script, to install it in your own project simply copy the script and place below all other default/custom scripts in your project, but above Main.
to have bridges like seen in the demo that have water under them, the tile that acts as the bridge needs a terrain tag to be set, otherwise the system will see it as open water, the terrain tag does not matter, its just to overwrite the terrain tag of the water as rpg-maker retrieves the tag from the highest tile.

Damnit diagostimo you beat me to it. I was planning on making a swim script but this Bank System is taking to long. Good job though.

This is a really good script and I am planning on using it for my project but is there a way to disable / enable the swimming? (I am planning the char to be unable to swim until a cut-scene and then learn how to swim)
I know it may seem like an odd request but it would be really helpful to know (yeah I am new at this)

Couple of bugs I should warn you about. If you transfer the player to a 'water' tile it doesn't put you in swim mode, and you will be stuck if you aren't next to an accessible tile. And if there is an event on the edge of the water you both enter swim mode and interact with the event at the same time.
AND I'm about to implement the ability to disable swimming, so the character can't swim before they learn how to swim. If you are interested give me a PM.

Hey there,
I tried to integrate the script in my game, but it does not seem to work. Every time I start the game, I get the following message:
"script 'swimmingScript' line 112: NoMethodError ocurred. Undefined method 'include?' for nil:NilClass"
Can anyone help me out. I'm pretty much a noob at this, I have to confess…
