135 135  * **Description:** Saving and reloading at Ice Mountain as soon as the player arrives will send Sabre to the world origin, causing him to fall into the void endlessly. This happens because Sabre's position is still uninitialised in the save data.
136 136  * **Workaround:** Don't save as soon as you arrive at Ice Mountain. Move forward into the area first, then save.

142 -You no longer fall into the void as Sabre (unless you're playing on a backup cart that's using an incorrect save file format)! However: saving and reloading during the jetbike race will currently (as of January 2024) set Sabre back to the top of Ice Mountain, so it's recommended to continue as far as Tricky's tutorial area before saving.

202 202  * **Workaround: **It is possible to shoot the switch with the projectile spell to cause it to lower; alternatively, it is also possible to get Tricky to stand on the switch by hitting him a few times and running to the elevator or by using his ball. After collecting the key from the SharpClaw, it must be used on an invisible trigger to the right of the door. A cursor will appear when prompted to use the key.
