A '''directional block''' is a special type of block introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]] which can be pushed by [[Chip]], [[Melinda]], [[rover]]s, and [[yellow tank]]s. They can only be pushed in the directions indicated by their arrows. | A '''directional block''', also known as a '''frame block''', is a special type of block introduced in [[Chip's Challenge 2]] which can be pushed by [[Chip]], [[Melinda]], [[rover]]s, and [[yellow tank]]s.

Like [[ice block]]s, multiple directional blocks in a row can be pushed simultaneously. They can also push ice blocks and vice versa. Unlike ice blocks, though, they can push [[dirt block]]s, while dirt blocks cannot push them. They turn into [[floor]], rather than [[dirt]], when pushed into [[water]], and are destroyed when pushed into [[fire]], [[flame jet]]s, or [[slime]], without changing the [[terrain]]. [[Tile]]s underneath directional blocks are always visible, even without the [[secret eye]]. | Like [[ice block]]s, multiple directional blocks in a row can be pushed simultaneously.

Though not placeable by the official Chip's Challenge 2 editor, directional blocks with no arrows are supported in-game and cannot be pushed in any direction. Some [[Chip's Challenge 2 Level Pack 1]] levels contain this type of directional block, such as [[Excavation Alley]] and [[Meeting in the Aisle]], where they exist as obstacles to be destroyed by [[bowling ball]]s. | |||
The directions of a directional block can only be changed with [[train track]]s, as demonstrated by the level [[Turning Point]]. [[Force floor]]s and [[ice]] will not change their directions. | The directions of a directional block can only be changed with [[train track]]s, as demonstrated by the level [[Turning Point]].
