Hi again..
I thought the (blocker) X . was suppose to stop monsters moving in the tile I put the blocker in.. It does not stop the Cube though..
Have I got the blocker idea wrong or do I have to do something else to stop the cube moving on a certain tile??
EDIT:
This is from the assets V2: X
defineObject{
name = "blocker",
class = "Blocker",
tags = { "scripting" },
editorIcon = 96,
}
Where it says Tags what is that. Is it hard coded??

It's a known issue that the Cube ignores blockers.

Depending on how your map is laid out, you could place a custom invisible door instead of a blocker, with hidden plates that (through script) instantly open or close it (from either side); plates that only trigger for the party. This would allow the party to pass unhindered, while blocking all other entities.
The one catch to this is that if the party is standing on the 'blocker plates', then the way is open, and the cube will move towards them [through the block].
* Here is a project that demonstrates this:

The cube ignores just about anything but a wall and a pit. Those extra invisible walls are there to keep the cube from rolling through the dragons. If you have statues or anything it's not supposed to roll over, surround them with invisible walls.
