[[Chip]] and enemies make their moves one after the other, not at the same time. The below list may not be completely accurate, but should serve as a solid guideline for when things act in relation to each other.
[[Chip]] and enemies make their moves one after the other, not at the same time. The below list may not be completely accurate, but should serve as a solid guideline for when things act in relation to each other. Note that the points in time that one might intuitively consider to be move boundaries—the relatively large periods of time during which little to nothing happens—are not what [[Microsoft's version of Chip's Challenge|MSCC]] considers internally to be the move boundaries, which are defined to be the points at which the timer ticks down.

# Chip can then make a voluntary move if he has either not yet moved in this move, or has completed an involuntary move. This behavior is why rapid 10 [[m/s]] boosting sequences can exist in the MS ruleset. [[Microsoft's version of Chip's Challenge|MSCC]] initiates mouse clicks here, while [[Tile World]] resolves mouse clicks at this time under all circumstances, as of 1.3.2 and 2.2.

# [[Monster]] voluntary moves are processed last, at the very end of each move. This is why monsters that stop sliding will sometimes seem to move again too soon- the sliplist executes, dropping the monster onto acting floor, and when the move ends the monster will immediately move, if able.

The fact that monsters and Chip move on separate turns is what causes Chip to be unable to pass through a space between two monsters that are moving the other way through that tile.
