Disappearing Items Glitch

**Disappearing Items Glitch** is a glitch used in *Super Mario Maker* that causes items to disappear after Mario exits a door or pipe. As of version 1.40, the moving platform method no longer works.

## Activating the Glitch

If a spring is on an up and down moving platform, if Mario grabs the spring it will become glitched. This is likely because the game still thinks the item is at its original location causing it to despawn after reaching its limit.

Alternatively, immediately swallowing any winged item that is shot out of a Bill Blaster with Yoshi, or grabbing it with Mario will have the same effects.

## Mechanics

### Disappearing Items

Going through a door or pipe while carrying the item will cause it to disappear. It is also possible to cause the item to disappear if Mario goes at least 18 blocks away from original spawn location of the item.

For the moving platform method, if the springs originally location was onscreen after Mario exited a door the spring would also be unable to spawn.

### Null Sprite

If the item is in Yoshi's mouth this will still cause the item to despawn, but have the appearance of Yoshi still having something in his mouth until he tries to spit it out. This can be used to swim faster underwater.

## Deactivating the Glitch

The glitch will only be de-activated if the glitched item despawns.
