In the Metroid Prime series, water is made up of triggers that are placed in the individual rooms. This includes the lava in [[Magmoor Caverns]] and the dark water in the Dark Aether regions of Echoes. When Samus interacts with these triggers, multiple values in memory are changed to account for this. Two of these values are relevant:
In the Metroid Prime series, water is made up of triggers that are placed in the individual rooms. This includes the lava in [[Magmoor Caverns]] and the dark water in the Dark Aether regions of Echoes. When Samus interacts with these triggers, multiple values in memory are changed to account for this. Two of these values are relevant:


* '''Fluid Counter''': Value that tracks whether or not Samus is currently interacting with a water box. This value can range from 0-3, corresponding with the number of water boxes Samus is interacting with. If this value goes over 3, it will instead go back to 0 and water physics will therefore be disabled. <small>(''see also'': [[Floaty Jump##Abusing Fluid Count|Abusing the Fluid Counter]])</small>

* '''Fluid Depth''': Value for registering how far inside the water Samus is relative to the surface of the waterbox that you are entering from. Once this value is >1.25, the game applies water physics to Samus. Game does not check where you left a water box from only that your fluid depth is >1.25 when you leave. <small>(''see also'': [[Floaty Jump##Abusing Fluid Depth|Abusing the Fluid Depth]])</small>
