Is there any way to make stairs which NPCs can choose whether or not to climb?
So far all I've seen is stairs which NPCs climb when they reach them, or stairs where they walk right past the bottom of them. Is there any way to build stairs where they can either climb them or walk past them? I'd like to have my NPCs be able to go hang out together during the day, but still be able to get back to their houses at night.

Since version 1.2.3, platforms in the sloped position will become stairs:
You can get platforms into the sloped position by hitting them with a hammer
These stairs will allow the NPC's to walk up them or past them.
