Sadly the image hasn't loaded properly, but I tried to recreate what you were describing with a bit of difficulty, so I have attached what I thought you meant.

Now if this is what you meant, then there doesn't seem to be able to do much about it... besides enlarge the hit boxes of the spikes. As you can't place many other objects that can fit in that small.

I personally would say it's less of a bug, and more of a feature. As it doesn't really have much to do with an error in the code, and more about the placement of spike/blocks. That is merely my opinion however.



As you can see in the image, there are spikes sitting on the joint of two blocks, which would not normally happen. This allows you to then place skinny objects in-between the gaps of the spikes.
