canEscapeSand (Very Hard)

The ability to escape from the bottom of a sand pit in water without Gravity Suit. This means escaping 1-tile deep pits with a sandfall overtop without HiJump but with the help of the solid ledge or a frozen enemy. This also applies to escaping deeper sand pits with HiJump but no sandfall. This does not include deep sand pits with a sandfall or 1-tile sand pits with no sandfall. This is done by holding down and then crouch jumping to become unstuck, then transitioning to another action to ascend through the sand.

Suitless Sand Escape (Left to Right) (Very Hard)

It is possible to get out of the sand with nothing. While holding down, crouch jump then press forward diagonal to clip into the wall enough to jump out.

Requires:

"h_crouchJumpDownGrab"
"canEscapeSand"

Dev note: This will never be in logic because there are easier ways to cross the room, but can be used to escape the sand.
