Just before the pygame.init() , write:

I'd get it working first, with whatever solution works before you start

I assume it's eating up CPU, it's doing something so that the game slows
down the point where updates take about a half a second. I don't have
thousands of blocks, but I do have a fair amount, something in the
vicinity of fifty, and three monsters.

If you keep track of which tiles are passible in an list, you only
need to consider the tiles surrounding a given monster, which should
not be a problem performance-wise. In fact, you only need to consider
the tiles that the monster wants to move into, and if the first one
is passible then
Actually the correct syntax to address an element would be:

The original syntax - passable_at[x,y] - is something that I've used
before; use a dictionary keyed on location instead of nested arrays. This
can be more space efficient

This would require defining every block to be not passable, right? I'd
rather not do that, because I would be defining the terrain twice... I
think I'll stick with the spritecollide stuff.
Thanks anyway!

Ben,
Sure thing - I've sent you a single player reg. code so you can access the mods.
(Offer still stands to any other pygamers interested.)

Hehe, yeah. It's because the same inner list object gets repeated for
each row. You change one row and they all change since they're the
same list.
I actually like the dictionary suggestion using coordinate tuples as
keys. That's more elegant. To retrieve the state of a tile you can

Another option is to use a one-dimensional list, which might be slightly
faster. In my game instead of doing:
tiles = []
for y in range(foo):
