'''Tile''' refers, broadly, to any distinct element within the world of [[Chip's Challenge]]. For example, [[Chip]] himself, the iconic [[computer chip]]s, locked [[door]]s, and pushable [[block]]s are all tiles. | |||
Other uses of the term include: | |||
* Elements like the [[toggle door]], which are really a collection of multiple tiles (the "open" and "closed" states are internally distinct in every Chip's Challenge game), but which act like a single entity that changes state. | |||
* An element ''and'' its facing direction, especially when editing for the [[DAT]] format. For example, a west-facing [[glider]] is an available tile, encoded in DAT as the byte <code>0x51</code>. | |||
* A combinations of tiles that functions as a single unit, especially if it alters the behavior of its parts. For example, a "fireball cloner" is really a [[fireball]] on top of a [[clone machine]] (which prevents the fireball from moving), and a "no green keys" sign is really a [[green key]] beneath a [[no sign]] (which prevents the key from being picked up). | |||
* One of the square positions within the grid of a level, which may contain multiple elements. More pedantically known as a '''cell'''. | |||
* One individual square of artwork used by any version of the game. Also known as a '''sprite'''. | |||

[[MSCC]] also has the [[clone block]], used to indicate the direction of a block cloner. This is a tile in the sense that it can be placed within a level, but it exists only as an editing trick and is indistinguishable within the game. In all other [[ruleset]]s, dirt blocks have a direction like every other moving object, so a separate clone block is unnecessary. | |||
=== Invalid tiles === | |||
These tiles are possible to place in a level due to quirks of the [[DAT]] format, and may have interesting properties, but only exist as accidents and aren't defined within the normal rules of the game. | |||
