- How can I make a Lakitu/Magikoopa/Reappearing Boos stop following/spawning in after a certain point in my levels?
- Place
Sprite D2
in the level where you want them to stop. You can find this in Special Commands and Generators list of the Add Sprites Window. - How can I prevent fade outs at the end of levels?

- Can I rearrange the status bar?
- The Status Effect tool can be used to change up the status bar. There are several patches that can be used to modify the status bar, as well.
