*Jump + A/B/C - jump dash.

===For Tails Only==

*Jump + A/B/C - flying, fly at anytime, but don't fly for too long, flying for too long can cause Tails to get tired.

*Jump + A/B/C if underwater - swimming, swim at anytime, but don't swim for too long, swimming for too long can cause Tails to get tired.

===For Bean Only===

*B - high speed dash, Bean can do a instant spindash at the touch of the B Button.

==Known Bugs==

*When you are playing this hack on real hardware, you may notice when you press down while standing, the game will crash, but not the music.
*When you are fighting the MTZ3 boss as Tails, hitting the boss while flying can cause the boss to explode like an enemy, and the level will not be completable with Tails.
*When you are fighting the ARZ2 boss as Tails, Eggman cannot get hit from the bottom of the eggpod.
