In this episode I go over how to code the Fireball ability in Mario. I also go over a bug-fix for entering pipes. Before you had to hit the pipe just right to be able to travel through it, but I've fixed it so that it should work as expected. Lastly, I go over a bug-fix for the debug drawing. We were drawing too many lines before which can cause weird issues on alternative Operating Systems, but that should be resolved now.
