Balloon Gliders by Mandew

Description: The Balloon Glider will latch onto Mario and allow him to glide until the next time he jumps.

Two kinds of gliders: The 1 balloon one which makes him glide downwards, and the 3-balloon one which makes him glide upwards. Use the Extra Bit to determine which one it is.
A nice concept, however, these hurt the player when they are riding Yoshi. Also, they are killable by thrown sprites, showing a glitchy death frame.
You can set its Acts Like to 9D (the bubbles containing different items) in the CFG to make Yoshi ignore it, by the way.
That's the only vanilla sprite Yoshi is hardcoded to ignore entirely, letting you write your own behavior. I used it in the throwing moles so the left-over mole hills don't make Yoshi cry. Haven't found any strange behaviour using it either.
