The Switch Block is a gimmick from Mega Man Powered Up. It is a small block that can be disabled or enabled through the use of switches.

Switch Blocks were first included in the Megamix Engine, and subsequently the devkits for Make a Good Mega Man Level 3 and Make a Good 48 Hour Mega Man Level.

Behavior

Switch Blocks are solid blocks that will be either "on" or "off" depending on the switch they're tied to; this is assigned by giving a Switch Block the same "myFlag" value as that of the switch to use via creation code. If a Switch Block isn't currently active, it will take on a darker colour and stop being solid until it is turned on again. Switch Blocks come in two colours; blue (which is active if the switch is in its "off" state) and red (which is active if the switch is in its "on" state).

Trivia

  • In all devkits Switch Balls have appeared in to date, they are named "objPUSwitchBlockRed" and "objPUSwitchBlockBlue".
