| The '''Floating plasma grenade''' [[glitches|glitch]] is an error found in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and [[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]]. The error causes [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|plasma grenades]] to hover in the air.

| ==Walkthrough==
| | On [[Assault on the Control Room (Level)|Assault on the Control Room]], when you get to the first lift, stand behind the sign that says 'Press X to Activate'. Lift and throw a [[plasma grenade]] into the center of the lift. The lift will go down, but the grenade will float in front of you. The grenade will harm you, so if you have low health, you will die after it explodes. |

| On [[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|Pillar of Autumn]], after [[Jacob Keyes|Captain Keyes]] gives you the [[m6D Personal Defense Weapon System|pistol]], kill the [[Unggoy|Grunts]] and return to the bridge. Kill one of the crewmen or [[Jacob Keyes|Captain Keyes]], and the [[invincible Marines]] will enter the bridge. Let them attack you until you have low health, and throw a plasma grenade '''when''' -- not before—you die. The grenade shouldn't leave your hand when you die; it will float in the air for a while and explode.

| === Multiplayer ===
| | A glitch involving grenades can be observed when you throw a plasma grenade into the air while riding an elevator. Instead of exploding, the grenade will keep bouncing until the elevator stops. |
| You need two players, one with a [[M41 rocket launcher|rocket launcher]] (''Person A'') and one with plasma grenades (''Person B''). Have ''Person A'' stand still and look straight ahead, and have ''Person B'' throw a plasma grenade onto the tip of the rocket launcher. Once the grenade stops moving, have ''Person A'' back off. The grenade will float until it explodes.

| == Explanation == | | ==Floating Grenade== |
| These instances of the glitch all have the same cause. When a plasma grenade sticks to an inanimate object, such as a wall or a weapon, the game stops calculating physics for the object—this is done under the assumption that the inanimate object will not be moved. The problem happens when a grenade is stuck to an inanimate object that ''does'' move, such as the floor of an elevator or the tip of a held weapon. When the object moves, the grenade does not move with it, because the game does not synchronize the two items' movements.
| | On [[Pillar of Autumn (Level)|Pillar of Autumn]], after [[Captain Keyes]] gives you the [[pistol]], kill the Grunts and return to the bridge. Kill one of the crewman or [[Captain Keyes]] and the invincible [[Marine]]s will enter the bridge. Let them attack you until you have low health and throw a [[plasma grenade]] WHEN, not before, you die. The grenade shouldn't leave your hand when you die. The grenade will float in the air for a while and explode. |
