===Bad Rayman's fist===

In the PlayStation version of the game, Bad Rayman can throw his [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] while copying [[Rayman]]'s actions. Unlike Bad Rayman's body, the fist is not recoloured, but instead looks exactly like [[Rayman]]'s did when it was thrown, reflecting [[Golden Fist]] and/or [[Speed Fist]] power-ups. This copy of the [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] should also have appeared in the PC version, but due to a programming error,<ref>The PC port of the engine added a function named ''add_alwobj'', which must be called on objects like the [[telescopic fist]] to add them to the list of "level objects". The code which manages Bad Rayman's [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] was not updated in the PC port to include this new function call, rendering it ineffective.</ref> it remains inactive and invisible.

Unlike Bad Rayman himself, his [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] is harmless to [[Rayman]], as it passes right through him. However, it was intended during [[Rayman 1|the game]]'s development to kill [[Rayman]] if it came into contact with him.<ref>This can be seen by decompiling the game's code and inspecting the main object function table: Bad Rayman and his [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] have the same collision function, ''DoBlKRayRaymanCollision''. The collision code for the [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]] is never executed, as the necessary flag to enable collision with [[Rayman]] is turned off in the [[~~telescopic~~ fist|fist]]'s animation state (''état'').</ref> It is unknown whether this behaviour was intentionally disabled for gameplay reasons, or just never fully implemented due to lack of time or other technical issues.
