'''Spring mining''' (official name pending) is a glitch in [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. It allows entities capable of pushing blocks to push a [[block]] off of a tile that becomes solid when moved off of (at least briefly) while also following it. In short, it lets you follow blocks [[flick]]ed off tiles under certain circumstances. | |||
Specifically, this works with a legally pushable block on a [[recessed wall]], a [[railroad]] junction where the next position is normally illegal to move onto, a [[swivel door]], or a [[turtle]]. | |||

This is the more obscure method. | This is the more obscure method. Spring mining may also be achieved by holding a blocked push on the minable tile against an entity that moves to another tile. | ||
( | For [[Chip]] and [[Melinda]] (and only they), this only works if the moving entity in question started after them in [[reading order]]. Chips and Melindas introduced to the level via waterbirth will always be able to spring mine this way, regardless of their starting point.

Trying to use the retreating monster method on a railroad corner with any type of directional block other than 4-way will result in the block becoming stuck in place and immovable unless pushed off by an entity with a [[railroad sign]]. | |||
