In MS's Chip's Challenge, traps and cloners don't always behave as I expected!
That's a fairly well-known bug in the MS game engine for Chip's Challenge. In most cases though, the bug actually help you out, as you've no doubt discovered.

I should note that the information in the above website is fairly accurate, but not completely so. The actual behavior of traps and cloners under the MS game engine bug is actually slightly more complicated. You can get the gory details by e-mailing ccexplore@yahoo.com.
