If a level designer connects a red button to more than one clone machine, only the first connection is valid. To change the connection to a different clone machine in a [[level editor]], either erase the clone machine and red button and reconnect them (in [[ChipEdit]]), or go to the "Clone Connections" menu and disconnect the tiles (in [[CCEdit]] or [[CCLD]]). In addition, ChipEdit will automatically connect a clone button to a clone machine if one is created ''directly'' after the other. | If a level designer connects a red button to more than one clone machine, only the first connection is valid.

Various things happen when a red button is connected to a tile that is not on top of a clone machine.
