Device issues again caused problems making my starts awkward. The move at 25 seconds was the obvious one to try but always ended up with B in the trench-restart. I also had problems with B holding his position after the autopilot. I failed to see the use of the ball so used a shortcut to get B in a position where R could be made to turn right. My ending was similar but due to my rotatable having greater velocity , the move wasn’t possible. I reversed the rotation to clockwise that enabled my win.
@ridgerunner - Sorry to hear that B ended up in the trench. In an earlier version of this level, I had an opening in the trench so B could get out just in case but that was only because the vertical swing arm was the ending. Since it's now at the start, a restart didn't hurt as much however my B never ended up in the trench. Thanks for P, C and R. What was your shortcut to skip the ball?
Wowee, tough. Glad the main mechanism was near the start as I needed many restarts... Then I made a mistake and had a runway R. Once wrangled back on course, things went ok until the 'spinner' stopped (or ran out of momentum?). Fortunately with R now in place, I could deviate B off course and managed to use it to give a gentle push and provide enough momentum to get to the finish line. Very challenging and creative, so definitely a 5-star puzzle!
@Stew - The vertical mechanism was at the end before I revamped the entire level so it was up front. I'm surprised that the horizontal mechanism stopped as it tends to run a long time but all devices are different. I'm glad you won and thanks for P, C and R.
