	Already tried it, and it didn't work. That was the command I used
for the deep sea diving suit, but it doesn't seem to work for the scuba
air tanks. And when I try diving to the Leviathan wreck with the deep sea
suit, my air hose gets ripped on some debris. Also, buying the deep sea
suit requires so much money I have to forgo buying other items that I
assume are necessary in the Leviathan variation. Is the only way to
complete this variation to dive with the deep sea suit anyway? Then again,
perhaps I just have a damaged game version.
	Thanks to all those who have replied,
