'''Bob-omb Battlefield''' is the first course in Super Mario 64. It can be accessed from the painting in the far-left room on the first floor of Princess Peach's castle. Being the first course of the game, the door leading to it does not require any Power Stars to be opened.

==Coins==
Bob-omb Battlefield has a total of 146 coins collectible without the aid of glitches, but only 141 coins can be collected with the first three stars selected. With the aid of glitches, the number of coins can be raised, namely by using the [[breaking-disappearing cork box glitch]], [[cloning]], or [[Ride canceling |ride canceling]]. Cloning can only produce a certain amount of coins before the object limit is reached, but the cork box and Koopa shell glitches can be used to get infinite coins.

In the A Button Challenge, it takes no A Presses to collect all seven stars, though the Wing Cap, unlocked by pressing the switch in ''Tower of the Wing Cap'', is required to complete ''Mario Wings to the Sky''.

The Wing Cap, unlocked by pressing the switch in ''Tower of the Wing Cap'', is required to complete ''Mario Wings to the Sky'' (by using [[Hat-in-Hand]] glitch). Though, it may be possible to use [[Behind Camera Anywhere]] instead of the wing cap, but it is unverified.

Scaling the mountain is easily done even without using the teleporters near the flowers or using the mountain warp. As the geometry of the course is mostly flat, there should be no difficulty even when climbing up the mountain. Simply scale the mountain and defeat King Bob-Omb without pressing A.

For this entry we will use the actual instructions listed by Pannenkoek:
The first three secrets can be collected by using [[Shell Hyperspeed]] and launching off the top of the mountain. The other two secrets are way too high for that, so Pannenkoek had to use a different.


<blockquote>First, I create [[goomba staircase]] up to a particular point above the floating island, and place the [[HOLP]] there. Then, I exit and re-enter the course to reset the goombas (but the HOLP placement will stay). Next, I use shell hyper speed to collect the lowest three secrets. Then, I create a [[goomba oasis]] between the fourth and fifth secrets. Finally, I create a second goomba staircase up to the oasis, and then ride both the staircase and oasis to collect the last two secrets in one go, and lastly collect the star.</blockquote>
Pannenkoek first sets the HOLP at a precise point high above the floating island by making a [[Goomba structure#Goomba Bridge|Goomba Bridge]] with 28 Goomba clones. He then exits the course to unload them, so the game wouldn't crash from the large number of Goomba clones. After re-entering, he uses the shell to reach the first three secrets, before performing the Hat-in Hand glitch. He uses [[Transport Cloning]] to create a [[Goomba structure#Goomba Oasis|Goomba Oasis]] with 7 precisely-placed Goomba clones that end up near the highest secret. He then creates another Goomba Bridge with 36 Goomba clones that led up to the Goomba Oasis. After that, he was able to use the Goomba Bridge to reach the 5th secret, then use the Goombas in the Oasis to turn around and fall into the 4th secret.


Collecting the star without A Presses takes 56 minutes, including setting up the HOLP in Bob-omb Battlefield, and 42 minutes without accounting the time to set up the HOLP.
This strategy uses 43 Goomba clones, which is a lot for the game to handle. This is why the was impossible to collect 0xA before the discovery of the Goomba Cluster and Goomba Oasis, as earlier strategies would have many more Goombas and would undoubtedly crash the game.

:''Video 3 (Death Clip): https://youtu.be/F5n5csEyCws''


Getting Behind the Gate is easy, but getting the star is not. First, Pannenkoek did some manipulation to reliably get goomba [[Cloning|clones]]. Then, he went behind the gate using a cork box and used that same box to clone the Goombas in such a way that he could ascend to the star using a [[Goomba Staircase]].

Eventually, in the second video, Pannenkoek uses Shell Hyperspeed to accumulate higher than -500 speed to clip behind the gate with enough height to collect the star behind the gate.

==Other Challenges==
In a [[CCC Challenge]], ''Mario Wings to the Sky'' is the most challenging mission to complete, as it requires the use of [[Parallel Universe]]s for the first four secrets and a complicated setup to achieve a high [[VSC]] for the fifth secret (with cloning being an alternative)<ref>CCC: https://youtu.be/ucK9bqmgnJA, https://youtu.be/JUIGWVUXUhc</ref>.
In the [[Coinless Challenge]], excluding coin missions, all stars can be collected. [[Mario Wings to the Sky]] is the most challenging mission to complete, as it requires the use of [[Parallel Universe]]s for the first four secrets and a complicated setup to achieve a high [[VSC]] while holding a fake object for the fifth secret<ref>CCC: https://youtu.be/ucK9bqmgnJA, https://youtu.be/JUIGWVUXUhc</ref>. The same stars can be collected in the [[CCC Challenge]].
 
In the [[Capless/Cannonless Challenge]], all seven stars can be collected.
 
In the [[No Buttons Allowed Challenge]], ''Find the 8 Red Coins'', ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'', and ''100 Coins'' can be collected<ref>No Buttons Allowed: https://youtu.be/voV_QgdLHiY, https://youtu.be/xOs72bQGadQ, https://youtu.be/aJV-yIGMK2A</ref>.
 
In a [[No Joystick Allowed Challenge]], all seven stars can be collected without using the joystick. However, some of these stars are completed using the [[Wing Cap]], which can not be obtained during a full-game run, as it requires looking up in the castle.<ref>No Joystick Allowed: https://youtu.be/BuDNiW72tFE, https://youtu.be/JnmC3HEkDuI, https://youtu.be/Z-zGMIoUu1E, https://youtu.be/P3gkP5Z8mVA, https://youtu.be/nnN_SVhWHTw, https://youtu.be/gAtIO1oER5Y, https://youtu.be/CHtsYWaqhMs</ref>.
 
In the [[Pacifist Challenge]], every star except for ''Big Bob-omb on the Summit'' can be collected in isolation. However, ''Footrace with Koopa the Quick'' can not be collected in a full-game run since it is impossible to select.
 
In the [[B Button Challenge]], the entire course is possible in 3 B presses, all three used to pick up King Bob-omb.


In a No Buttons Allowed challenge, ''Find the 8 Red Coins'', ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'', and ''100 Coins'' can be collected using only the joystick and the C buttons (to turn the camera)<ref>No Buttons Allowed: https://youtu.be/voV_QgdLHiY, https://youtu.be/xOs72bQGadQ, https://youtu.be/aJV-yIGMK2A</ref>.
In the [[Z Button Challenge]], the entire course is possible in 0 Z presses. ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'' requires a bomb clip to avoid ground pounding on the post.


In a No Joystick Allowed challenge, ''Big Bob-omb on the Summit'' and ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'' can be collected without using the joystick<ref>No Joystick Allowed: https://youtu.be/BuDNiW72tFE, https://youtu.be/gAtIO1oER5Y</ref>.
In the [[UBER Challenge]], ''Shoot to the Island in the Sky'' and ''Behind Chain Chomp's Gate'' can be collected.


There is an [[unsolved challenge]] in this course, to ground pound on Chain Chomp's post without interacting with the red coin.
