Adds a new dimension to the gamePanMan2013-11-21-

This is a great hack that adds a new dimension to the game and makes the various SMB3 rom hacks more accessible since there is a lesser need for save states. I especially like the fact that you can for instance switch between the leaf and fire flower at will depending on your immediate need (e.g., kill a few goombas with your fire power, then switch to the leaf and fly away, then switch back to the fire flower and kill more enemies.... provided you were able to get both items and don't take a hit, of course).

Highly recommend especially to add to compatible rom hacks. Well done!

This patch does exactly what is says it does. The priority system works great! I picked up a Tail while using the P-Wing, and I kept the P-Wing while the Tail went into the slot. My only complaint is that after Bowser fell, I couldn't change to my Frog Suit; what-evs. Thanks Dizzy9!
