I added another pathing plugin named RandomSwim.
Usage - plugin::RandomSwim(MaxXVariance, MaxYVariance, WaterSurfaceZ);
It works just like the RandomRoam plugin, but won't let the NPC go to any point higher than the water surface Z you put into the plugin command. It will swim to a random X, Y and Z in water. This makes them swim a bit choppy if there isn't a water map for the zone, but if there is, I think they should swim pretty nicely.
Here is the current whole path_tools.pl file that I use:
Code:

Make sure that if you use all of these plugins combined into a single file (like I do now), that you remove the old randomroam.pl and straightpath.pl files from your plugins folder.
