Scuttlebug Transportation

Main Article: Scuttlebug Transportation

Since Scuttlebugs update their home whenever they bump into Mario, you can make a scuttlebug walk farther than normal by repeatedly strategically bumping into a scuttlebug at the edge of its radius.

Despawning

This is an intentional behavior made by the developers, but it can have unintended consequences. Scuttlebugs will unload if they walk into a wall too far below their home. The intended result of this is that if a scuttlebug falls into a hole where Mario would die, it will unload. The unintended result of this is that if a scuttlebug walks too far down a slope and happens to bump a wall, it will unload.
