Look at the "common" textures or type "utility" in the text box at the top of the editor. Anything with the word "clip" is invisible. Some of the clip textures are used to add sounds, but they also block players or weapons.

depends on what u want to use it for:

common/clip blocks players and 'monsters' (i.e. ai/s)
common/clipall blocks players and 'monsters' and bullets
common/playerclip blocks players
common/monster blocks 'monsters'
common/weapon blocks bullets

those with a surface type like common/woodclip block players and have the corresponding surface behavior. E.g. walking on a woodclip brush would sound like walking on wood. Also, players get no damage falling on them, so I used them e.g under steep stairs where the player would be hurt if he came down too fast.

i've put together a table of the clip textures, which though is not 100% complete. If one of our mapping gods would be so nice to fill in the missing pieces, it ought to be good for the tut section!?
