Like normal checkpoints, except the are activated when a mimic steps on them, rather than Beethro.

I just created a room where Beethro is in a very small enclosed space and needs to navigate a mimic. If I put a checkpoint in the room, Beethro keeps stepping on it - I want to record the mimic's progress, not Beethro's.

It also records where the mimic is, so no biggie.

No, you don't understand - I want a checkpoint that's activated when the mimic steps on it. The entire point is to avoid saving the game state every 5 moves; in an enclosed space, a checkpoint is pointless, since it's very easy to step on the checkpoint after making a fatal mistake.
