This strange glitch has an unclear cause that occurs on the area with many hedges and Chain Chomps. After being hit repeatedly by the Chain Chomp, on the mini-map I have seen the computer stay in place for a few seconds, as if blocked by the hedge, but suddenly go to (presumably picked up by a Latiku) the fountain area. I have never actually stayed and seen why this occur and have been unable to recreate it in Time Trials.

Reply: I had something similar happen when I was fooling around with an unlimited star cheat. I pushed a computer back from another part of the track back into the hedge section, they couldn't find their way out and after a few seconds got lifted to a further area. It might be a fail safe built in exactly for if a computer gets stuck (for certain areas at least). Yes I cheated, but the idea is the same: The computer players can't path find very well. They only follow a set path and if it gets disturbed so much that they don't realize where they are, they try to go back to where they were by traveling in a straight line to it (like the "Confused CPU" glitch mentioned earlier here). I even saw one take the "shortcut" on Mushroom Bridge after doing this because it was a direct way back to where they were (the other end of it, where I first started hitting them) although they hit the wall a lot in the process. -Satan915 | Reply: I had something similar happen when I was fooling around with an unlimited star cheat.
