When commanded to [[Travel|move to a new location]], a Blockhead will pause as the game calculates its path. During this time, the gear symbol will appear and animate above its head. Once the calculations are complete, the symbol will disappear and the Blockhead will either begin moving or the destination selection will be aborted as inaccessible.

Very long or complex travel requests may spontaneously abort due to internal limits on the game's path calculator.
Very long or complex travel requests may spontaneously abort due to internal limits on the game's path calculator. The gear isn't always visible as the calculations happen too quickly.
 
==Trivia==
Normally the gear symbol isn't visible because the calculations happen too quickly.
