I was trying to softlock the game using the radio tower shine. Instead, I ended up either moving, or removing the shinesprite's hit box from the model. This was previously unknown. Someone try to replicate this.
Edit: I've found the cause of this glitch. If you interrupt the shine animation before Mario collects the shine, then it's hitbox becomes removed. You can do this in a number of ways, such as activating scripted events during collection, or collecting a shine over water.
