[NeoLemmix] NeoLemmix Introduction Pack [Difficulty: Beginner]

It is interesting that it's possible, but then why not just make him a stoner INSTEAD of a blocker?

Blocker and stoner are definitely not the same skill. For instance in this particular level, the blocker needs to be walked on at some point. There are lots of other differences.

Yup, there are crucial differences between the blocker and stoner skills that not only set them apart from one another, but certain things will only work by being a blocker first before stoning it later. In the particular LPA level Guigui refers to, the other thing that separates the blocker from the stoner is the former turns others skills and they continue in the other direction rather than stopping, which the latter doesn't! Yes, it makes a turnaround point for Lemmings when you stone on ground level, but unlike the blocker, it doesn't turn Lemmings and make them perform skills in the other direction when the skill hits the stoner!

Before this LPA level, namida first made an LPO2 (Lemmings Plus Omega 2) level with an interesting application of the interaction. I won't spoil which level it is other than it's a level in the Sharp rank if you're interested in checking it out @Guigui

Also @Guigui, in addition to the bomber/stoner, besides the permanent skills, the only other skill you can assign to the blocker is the walker skill to free it. This last one comes from Lemmings 3/Lemmings Chronicles, so NL is simply copying the behavior here of being able to assign the walker skill to a blocker to free it.
