Line 1: Line 1:
An '''item''' is any of nine [[tile]]s which [[Chip]] can collect and store in his inventory. The nine items are the four [[key]]s, the four [[boot]]s and [[computer chip]]s.
An '''item''' is a [[tile]] which [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] can collect and store in their inventory. Aside from [[key]]s and [[computer chip]]s which have separate inventories, players can hold at most four items in their inventory at once. Although the computer chip is technically an item, it does not appear in the player's inventory like the other items.


Items cannot be moved and can only be collected by Chip. The only other things that can erase items are the [[Non-Existence Glitch]] at the start of the game, or generally, other moving objects which pass over squares containing items on the lower layer of the [[grid]]: [[monster]]s erase any item on the lower layer of any square they enter, and Chip and [[block]]s will only erase items on the lower layer if the upper layer contains a non-[[floor]] tile which was not removed by the passage of Chip or the block. However, in [[Lynx]], the [[blue key]] ''can'' be erased by monsters and blocks.
In [[Chip's Challenge 2]], [[yellow teleport]]s are treated like items and can be picked up by the player if attempting to use the teleport with an obstructed exit.


There are specific tiles which are ''not'' items, although Chip can remove them: [[socket]]s, [[dirt]], fake [[blue wall]]s and [[lock]]s are not items. Chip can also move blocks, and although blocks can remove [[water]] and [[bomb]]s, they are not considered items either.
There are specific tiles which are ''not'' considered items even though Chip can remove them: [[socket]]s, [[dirt]], fake [[blue wall]]s, [[lock]]s, etc. are not items. Chip can also move [[block]]s, but they are not considered items.


The only items monsters can pass over are keys, and blocks cannot pass computer chips. [[Thieves]] will only steal boots.
== Properties of items in CC1 ==


== Trivia ==
In the original [[Chip's Challenge 1]], the only items aside from keys and chips are fire boots, flippers, ice skates, and suction boots. Items cannot be moved and can only be collected by Chip. The only other things that can erase items are the [[Non-Existence Glitch]] at the start of the game, or generally, other moving objects which pass over squares containing items on the lower layer of the [[grid]]: [[monster]]s erase any item on the lower layer of any square they enter, and Chip and [[block]]s will only erase items on the lower layer if the upper layer contains a non-[[floor]] tile which was not removed by the passage of Chip or the block. However, in [[Lynx]], the [[blue key]] ''can'' be erased by monsters and blocks.


* Although the computer chip is technically an item, only the other eight items are defined as such in the menu of [[CCEdit]].
The only items monsters can pass over are keys, and blocks cannot pass computer chips. [[Item thief|Thieves]] will only steal boots.
 
== Properties of items in CC2 ==
 
Most of the original properties of items apply in [[Chip's Challenge 2]], however the sequel included multiple new items and new item mechanics. If the player attempts to pick up a fifth item, the last item in the player inventory is dropped to accommodate the new item. New in CC2, players can also choose to rotate through the items in their inventory ('C' on the keyboard by default) and drop the last item in their inventory ('Q' on the keyboard by default).
 
Another new mechanic in CC2 is certain [[monster]]s and items maintain their own inventory (separate from the player inventory) and can also pick up items. In many cases, monsters can then use these items as the player would.
 
The solution to a number of CC2 puzzles involve strategically dropping items or passing items to monster inventories, allowing monsters to solve portions of the puzzle on the player's behalf.
 
== Footwear ==
An item is considered footware if it allows [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] to walk unrestricted on tiles where they would normally not be able to do so.  All footwear is taken away when Chip lands on an [[item thief]] and behave as an [[acting wall]] to most [[monster]]s.
 
=== Fire boots ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Fire boots
|image = [[Image:Fire Boots.png]][[Image:FireBootsCC2.png]]
|cc1 = Yes
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  = 105
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
'''Fire boots''' allow [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] to walk across [[fire]] safely. They do not, however, protect them from any [[fireball]]s that may be in the fire.
 
As with all other boots, it is taken away when the player lands on an [[item thief]], and is an [[acting wall]] to [[monster]]s only. Chip can collect fire boots touched by a block by simply pushing the block again; specifically, this will shorten play through [[Balls O Fire]].
 
In [[Lynx]], instead of fire boots, a "heat shield" is used, as seen by the different [[hint]] in [[Lesson 3]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Flippers ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Flippers
|image = [[Image:Flippers.png]][[Image:FlippersCC2.png]]
|cc1 = Yes
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  = 104
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
'''Flippers''' allow [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] to swim through [[water]] safely if they are unable to use [[block]]s to do so, or if for time reasons this is a faster way. Flippers do not, however, protect them from any [[glider]]s that may be swimming nearby. In [[Lynx]], instead of flippers, a "water shield" is used, as seen by the different [[hint]] in [[Lesson 3]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Hiking boots ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Hiking boots
|image = [[Image:HikingBoots.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''hiking boots ''' are a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. They allow [[Melinda]] to walk over [[dirt]] and [[gravel]] tiles, but have no effect when worn by [[Chip]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Ice skates ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Ice skates
|image = [[Image:Ice Skates.png]][[Image:IceSkatesCC2.png]]
|cc1 = Yes
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  = 106
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
'''Ice skates''', or just '''skates''', allow [[Chip]] to walk across [[ice]] at normal speed the same way he walks on ordinary floors, but have no effect when worn by [[Melinda]]. In the MS ruleset ''only'', Chip can also step through ice corners from within the ice space that contains them across to another space, as long as the move is legal.
 
In [[Lynx]], instead of ice skates, ice cleats are used, as seen by the different [[hint]] in [[Lesson 3]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Railroad sign ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Railroad sign
|image = [[Image:RRSign.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''railroad sign''', often abbreviated to '''RR sign''', is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. It allows [[Chip]], [[Melinda]], [[mirror Chip]], [[mirror Melinda]], or a [[rover]] to cross [[railroad track]]s as if they were floor.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Speed boots ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Speed boots
|image = [[Image:SpeedBoots.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''speed boots ''' are a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. They allow [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] to walk at ten tiles per second; twice their normal speed. The same is true for their [[player mirror|mirrors]] as well as bowling balls and ghosts. [[Rover]]s will walk at five tiles per second, just like regular monsters. Speed boots have no impact when sliding on [[force floor]]s or [[ice]].
 
[[Lesson 6 (CC2 level)|Lesson 6]] is the only official level that uses speed boots.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Suction boots ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Suction boots
|image = [[Image:Suction Boots.png]][[Image:SuctionBootsCC2.png]]
|cc1 = Yes
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  = 107
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
'''Suction boots''' or '''suction shoes''' allow [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] to walk across [[force floor]]s the same way he walks on ordinary floors, at the expense of moving at his regular speed. In [[Lynx]], instead of Suction boots, magnets are used instead, as seen by the different [[hint]] in [[Lesson 3]].
 
{{clear}}
 
== Other Items ==
 
=== Bowling ball ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Bowling ball
|image = [[Image:BowlingBall1.png]] [[Image:BowlingBall2.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = Yes
|moves = Yes
}}
 
The '''bowling ball''' is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. Once picked up by [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]], it remains in the inventory until dropped. Then, it will travel in a direction until it is destroyed by a hazard. It is capable of destroying [[monster]]s and [[block]]s, picking up [[item]]s, pressing [[button]]s, and more.
 
Bowling balls have an inventory of four tools: if they grab a fifth, the first will be dropped.
 
=== Bribe ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Bribe
|image = [[Image:Bribe.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''bribe''' is an [[item]] introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. If [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] hold at least one bribe in their inventory and step on a blue or red [[thief]], the bribe will be stolen but the rest of the inventory will be preserved. A thief will take bribes from monsters, other items are not stolen. If a player or monster has multiple bribes in their inventory, only one bribe will be used after stepping on a thief.
 
It is only used in [[Lesson 6 (CC2 level)|Lesson 6]] and [[Flea Market]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Helmet ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Helmet
|image = [[Image:Helmet.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''helmet ''' is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. It will make [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]] unable to killed by [[monster]]s or moving [[block]]s. Monsters and moving blocks will instead treat Chip and Melinda as [[acting wall]]. Similar monsters wearing the helmet will not be able to kill Chip or Melinda.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Hook ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Hook
|image = [[Image:Hook.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''hook''' is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. It allows [[Chip]] and [[Melinda]] to pull [[block]]s, [[ice block]]s, and [[directional block]]s. With the tool equipped, pulling happens automatically if Chip or Melinda walk perpendicularly away from the block and if the block is able to traverse the tile Chip or Melinda are currently standing on. It was first introduced in the level [[Flea Market]] and is used in only one level, [[Line and Sinker]], after its introduction.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Lightning Bolt ===
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Lightning Bolt
|image = [[Image:LightningBolt.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''lightning bolt ''' is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. When equipped by a moving object, like [[Chip]], [[Melinda]], [[ghost]]s, [[rover]]s, or [[bowling ball]]s, they will supply signal to a wire while stopped on one. The lightning bolt has no effect on wires that are already activated.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Secret eye ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Secret eye
|image = [[Image:SecretEye.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''secret eye''' is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. When equipped by [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]], it reveals the identity of [[invisible wall]]s, [[hidden wall]]s, [[blue wall]]s, [[green wall]]s, content under [[block]]s, and content under [[Tent canopy|canopies]], and it gives a unique look to the [[floor mimic]].
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Steel foil ===
 
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Steel foil
|image = [[Image:Foil.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
'''Steel foil''', commonly shortened to '''foil''', is a tool introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. They allow [[Chip]], [[Melinda]], [[mirror Chip]], [[mirror Melinda]], the [[ghost]], and the [[rover]] to change normal [[wall]]s into [[steel wall]]s by pushing on them.
 
{{clear}}
 
=== Time bomb ===
{{Infobox Game Tile
|name = Time bomb
|image = [[Image:TimeBomb.png]]
|cc1 =
|cc2 = Yes
|cc1index  =
|multidirectional = No
|moves = No
}}
 
The '''time bomb ''', also known as '''dynamite''', is an [[item]] introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. When dropped by [[Chip]] or [[Melinda]], the time bomb will count down for about four seconds before exploding; the countdown starts after the player has stepped off it.
 
For more information, see the full article on the [[Time bomb]].
