Normally, blocks are pushed by being displaced: the player enters the block's cell and moves the block out of the way. However, under some circumstances, a block can be pushed out of a cell that the player couldn't have entered in the first place. | ||
Flicking is arguably a [[glitch|bug]] for this reason, but its utility in level design has made it a common feature in official [[level set]]s. | Flicking is arguably a [[glitch|bug]] for this reason, but its utility in level design has made it a common feature in official [[level set]]s. | ||

Flicking appears in a more minor and deliberate form in CC2, where a block's movement out of a cell can ''cause'' the cell to become an acting wall and prevent its pusher from following it. This happens with [[recessed wall]]s, [[railroad]]s with appropriate junctions, [[swivel door]]s, and [[turtle]]s | Flicking appears in a more minor and deliberate form in CC2, where a block's movement out of a cell can ''cause'' the cell to become an acting wall and prevent its pusher from following it.

These flicks work exactly the same way for ''any'' of the new CC2 actors that can push blocks: [[yellow tank]]s, [[rover]]s, [[player mirror]]s, and [[ice block|ice]] and [[directional block]]s. The exception is with turtles — those create a splash as they vanish, and splashes only block real players. | |||
