+The '''clone block''' is a special type of [[block]] in [[Chip's Challenge]] that is used to clone [[block]]s. In [[MS ruleset|MS]], it appears as a normal block but functions as a wall, although [[CCEdit]] and [[CCLD]] show the tile as it is seen in the infobox so it can be read easier. In [[Lynx ruleset|Lynx]], it appears and behaves as a normal block, except that if it starts on a [[sliding tile]] other than a [[force floor]], it will begin moving in the direction that it faces. Normal blocks in Lynx behave exactly like north clone blocks.

+When a [[clone machine]] is placed under a clone block, it will clone a block just like any other clone machine, in a direction specific to the direction of the tile used. A similar device is created by putting a regular [[block]] on top of a clone machine, which in MS is activated only by Chip pushing on it, and clones the block opposite from Chip. This is a common type of situation for use of the [[Mouse Panel Glitch]], although this type of clone block is not commonly seen.

+A second special case is when a clone block ''without'' a clone machine is connected to a [[red button]] and that red button is pressed; in MS, the clone block will clone once assuming this is legal, and then disappear, revealing the tile underneath it. In Lynx, a red button connected to anything other than a clone machine has no effect.

In Lynx, a clone block without a clone machine under it functions as a normal block.
+Clone blocks are irrelevant and unsupported in [[Chip's Challenge 2]], in which all types of blocks have a starting direction which can be determined in an editor, just like any normal entity (though [[directional block]]s need a more sophisticated editor like [[CCCreator]] or [[CC2Edit]] to fully control the direction they face, independently from their arrows. It is possible to rotate blocks in the built-in editor with the , and . keys; the editor just does not show the direction they face.) Level designers can still get an "unpushable block" in CC2 by simply placing a block on top of a [[wall]].
