Dynamic Buoyancy — Characters buoyancy is effected based on their velocity, depth, and other factors
Dynamic Water Interactions — Wading, when walking through deep water characters are slowed & their walk animations are dynamically modified to show water resistance. Drowning, which will effect their swim animation, speed, & buoyancy. Jumping in, a specialized animation can be played when specifically jumping into a deep enough body of water
