Never be afraid to ask, but don't demand an answer 
When walking into (non-low) hardness, after a while Dink will start pushing. When that happens, an object's push method may be activated. Nothing strange so far. However: any object that is touching Dink at that moment will have its push function called. Read that again. Yes, that means that if you have a rock which blocks off a doorway, walking up to the rock and then pushing the wall will call the rock's push function, possibly moving it to the side (if it responds to Dink's current direction).

This totally messes up my puzzle. It isn't too hard to fix; I just have to check if Dink is in the right place compared to the object. But it's important to know that I have to check this, because I thought the push function wouldn't be called if he wasn't.
