The shine sprite killing!

[BigbadBoy]

I found a glitch! When you put a shine sprite ON the lava (with 2/3 steps above) when you take the shine sprite,the shine sprite is killed (it disappears) Cool no?

Cool.

But it's already been discovered. You can check for bugs/glitches by viewing this topic. Or this one.

wow guys stop ninjaing me

We know a lot of glitches already. Most of them are already known since 2009, and discovering a new glitch nowadays would be a bit sensational.

As a hint, if you think you have found something new, it's probably the most effective thing to ask an experienced level designer (e.g. a level mod) about it through PM. You could also try finding it in one of the two threads, but unfortunately the search function is broken and of course we don't ask you to go through all 20+ pages just for that.

The wondrous part of the thing is actually that Mario doesn't retrieve the shine on lava, but does on fire. Probably because lava is tiles and fire is an item. However, it would be even more of a glitch if the shine sprite DID respawn after falling into the lava. You can also use this effect deliberately e.g. to create a timed challenge, where you put switch tiles between the shine and lava.

And it's never too late to get an overview over the forums of course. There are quite many threads which are both useful and nice to read, e.g. MoD's Timeline.
