In addition to being physically pushed by Chip, blocks can be [[Clone block|cloned]] and slide through [[ice]], [[force floor]]s, and [[teleport]]s. There is a danger in this, as a block that lands on Chip will kill him, with the [[Death message]]: ''Ooops! Watch out for moving blocks!'' A block clones at 5 [[m/s]] in Lynx and 20 m/s in MS, so it cannot be seen cloning in MS. If another block or a monster clones a block onto a space Chip is about to step, the block will get there first and Chip will push it. However, if Chip himself clones the block in this situation because of stepping onto the [[red button]], he will be on the square first and thus will die.

If a block is pushed onto ice or force floors, it can be stopped from sliding by attempting to push it onto any block-acting wall. This method is known as the [[ram]], and can be used to make travels through sections of [[Block Buster]] and [[Block Buster II]] safer, though slower. If the ram is not used, when a sliding block is trapped by a [[removable obstacle]] (or two on both sides, if it is sliding on ice) and the obstacle disappears, the block continues sliding. When the ram cannot be used, the only ways for Chip to safely perform this himself are the [[spring step]] or by altering [[Slide Delay]] to the point that the block remains stationary long enough.
