A ''Misalignment'' is a 1x1 unit area where Mario can get really close to a corner without being pushed out. This is useful for the [[A Button Challenge]] where Mario needs to [[Ground Pound]] into a misalignment in [[Hazy Maze Cave]] for [[Watch for Rolling Rocks]]. '''Migrate info from Pannen’s video on wall hitboxes'''
A ''Misalignment'' is a 1x1-unit area where a floor hitbox extends to but wall hitboxes do not. On convex corners, they allow Mario to snap up to the floor from up to 78 units below it, as opposed to just 30 units when there is a wall hitbox present.

== Uses ==
=== A Button Challenge ===
 
Because of the extra height they allow Mario to gain and the ability to get directly under the floor, they're very useful in the A button challenge. Uses include:
* A press saves:
** [[Watch for Rolling Rocks]] (HMC), where Mario ground-pounds into a misalignment to get to the platform with the star.<ref>[https://youtu.be/kpk2tdsPh0A?t=1415 "SM64 - Watch for Rolling Rocks - 0.5x A Presses (Commentated)" by pannenkoek2012]</ref>
** [[Tick Tock Clock]], where a misalignment on a cog<ref>[https://youtu.be/27F2cz3PYvQ "TTC Cog Misalignment" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/0zxKTxhEhi8 "TTC Cog Misalignment on Random Setting" by Sidney600SM64]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/7eK2yszTfyA "Cog Misalignment (A press save SOON!)" by DeRockProject]</ref> combined with [[VSC]] is used to help save an A press in [[Stomp on the Thwomp]]<ref>[https://youtu.be/AN2CvTUyFCg "TTC Stomp on the Thwomp 3x A Presses (OUTDATED)" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/3WLlQ2alTK8 "TTC Stomp on the Thwomp 2x A Presses" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref> and [[Timed Jumps on Moving Bars]]<ref>[https://youtu.be/FMA-zEznvMo "TTC Timed Jumps on Moving Bars 1x A Presses" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref>, as well as remove the need for a preset [[HOLP]] in [[The Pit and the Pendulums]] which saves an A press in a full game run<ref>[https://youtu.be/SEVrw0dxYxg "TTC The Pit and the Pendulums & Re-Enter 1x A Presses (without Preset HOLP)" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref>.
** [[Bowser in the Dark World]] and [[Bowser in the Sky]], where a misalignment is used to enter the pipe.<ref>[https://youtu.be/b0vDJmsvVBw?t=74 "SM64 - Bowser in the Dark World (without Red Coins) - 0x A Presses" by pannenkoek2012]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/43DxMVh8jBg "BitS Warp Pipe using 207 DR" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref>
 
* Timesaves:
** [[Chip off Whomp's Block]] (WF), where a misalignment on King Whomp is used to get onto him with [[VSC|stored VS]], enabling Mario to ground-pound him without help from the elevator. This also removes the need to clone the star as Mario can ground-pound King Whomp at the star spawn location.<ref>[https://youtu.be/EizI60fNrj0 "(TAS) Chip Off Whomp's Block 0xA - 44"90 (OUTDATED)" by fifdspence]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/ZIje_PpDeIc "(TAS) Chip Off Whomp's Block 0xA - 40"33" by galoomba]</ref>
** [[To the Top of the Fortress]] (WF), where a misalignment on a tower platform is used which removes the need for slow [[HOLP]] setting in [[Bob-omb Battlefield|BOB]] as well as both wing and metal cap.<ref>[https://youtu.be/SrrgpVhI4xA "(TAS)  To the Top of the Fortress + 100 Coins 0xA - 1:43"12 (OUTDATED)" by fifdspence]</ref><ref>[https://youtu.be/nHx7r6T9ROA "(TAS) SM64: To the Top of the Fortress + 100 coins 0xA - 1:41:78 by fifdspence and Iwer Sonsch" by Iwer Sonsch]</ref>
** [[Bowser in the Dark World]], where a misalignment is used to get to a higher platform without [[VSC]]. This also makes BitDW non-terminating, but that's not currently useful.<ref>[https://youtu.be/U4vcFxz0F3g "BitDW 207 DR" by Tyler Kehne]</ref>
