BashPrime: Corrected portal terminal activation info

==Prime==
There are a ton of version differences for Metroid Prime, so check out this link from The Cutting Room Floor: https://tcrf.net/Metroid_Prime/Version_Differences

==Echoes==
* The size of the screw attack is bigger in Trilogy so that it isn´t possible anymore to go out of bounds through Morph Ball tunnels.
* Spider Guardian´s damage inflicting barrier was shortened in Trilogy so he can´t hit you through walls anymore.
* Ing Smashers in Hall of Combat Mastery will lock the door the 1st time they appear in Trilogy.
* The Jump Guardian Trick was removed in the Trilogy and Japanese GC Version.
* In the Japanese and Trilogy releases, you must rotate all three lenses in Portal Terminal (Agon) to activate the portal, instead of only needing to rotate the third lens.
* In the NTSC GC Version it was possible to [[Slope Jump]] on a wasp nest left to the half-pipe that leads to seeker to get it earlier without Boost Ball. It was removed in all other versions.
* In the NTSC GC Version there is an Ing Pod that is positioned near the Save Station that let´s you Space Jump up to the 3rd Temple Key in Torvus so that you don´t need Grapple for it. It was removed in every other version.

Item Loss Skip

2020-10-07T21:56:47Z

BashPrime: Switched the order of the methods as the current method is far more relevant than the infinite speed method

== General Information ==
This is the unquestionably the biggest sequence break in the entire game, and arguably the entire Prime series. It allows you to keep all the items you started the game with, which completely breaks open the early game. It would be difficult to measure the exact amount of time it saves compared to losing your items, but it's definitely many, many minutes.

In Prime 2, you start the game with the following 5 items, which you maintain with ILS:
* [[Missile Launcher]]
* [[Morph Ball Bomb]]
* [[Space Jump]]
* [[Boost Ball]]
* [[Spider Ball]]

Some other notes:
* Interestingly enough, if you lose your items, the game says you lost [[Power Bomb]] and [[Grapple Beam]], although it is actually lying and you don't start the game with the items.
* Currently, there is no way to perform ILS in 100%, since the Missile Expansion in [[Hive Chamber B]] (the room you lose your items in) doesn't exist until the room has been reloaded.
* The current method of ILS can be done on any version of the game.

== Current Method ==
The current method to get out of bounds before item loss was found in 2016 by [https://www.twitch.tv/edgragon_gx EDragon]. On top of being hilariously simple, its is 50 seconds faster and has no risk of crashing the game, making it extremely convenient for Any% and Low% speedruns. You literally just jump through a hole in the ceiling in Hive Chamber A. From here, you can [[Dash Jump (Echoes)|Scan Dash]] out into the Aether, get to the skywalk, then touch the top of the tunnel and immediately move back to transition to Hive Access Tunnel. You can also try a one-time Aether Jump while walking towards the tunnel, as shown in the video. While being slightly faster, this is significantly riskier.
{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATmh7mYAnnU}}

== Old Method ==
The first method to skip item loss was found in 2010 and used a trick called [[Infinite Speed]]. Essentially, you used Infinite Speed in [[Hive Chamber A]] to hit the cutscene trigger where you fall down the tunnel in [[Hive Access Tunnel]]. However, since you weren't actually in Hive Access Tunnel while hitting this trigger, the game just warped you [[Out of Bounds]] in Hive Access Tunnel at the point of the trigger, and you were then free to wallcrawl and skip item loss. This method is 50 seconds slower than the new method and also has a 50% chance of crashing the game.

Life Grove Tunnel is a room in Metroid Prime. Not only is it a room, it is considered the worst room in the game by the greater speedrunning community.
