World is round?

Some people still wonder whether the world is round. B is going on expedition and will walk in a straight line towards the win (if the world is indeed round). This should take only about 53 days. [This level is more of a joke, but winnable]

World is round?

      2nd upload with B in a different initial position, rest is the same. Thanks to @Chuckthulhu for pointing out a rather embarrassing shortcut. :oops:
    • Block builder
      @Chuckthulhu Yes there is another way. :rolleyes: Let me know if you need a hint.

      Fun (and funny!)
    • Chuckthulhu
      Ok
      I pulled the long draggable and through pushing I left B in the wedges, so I pulled the other draggable and with another quick push left his on the stairs.
      Is that the intended solution?
    • Block builder
      @Chuckthulhu That sounds like the intended solution.

      1. Autopolit to this position, using the large draggable to make room and then to climb.

      2. Drag the large draggable 1 square to the left, so B moves properly on the wedge.

      3. Move the large draggable away to the left, and pull out the small draggable. Step on it.

      4. When you pulled out the small draggable, an automatic movable filled some space at the backside. So now you can quickly move the small draggable right without risk of overshooting. (You can jam blocks through each other though... :rolleyes:) B ends up on the stairs and can walk to the win.

      Another, actually easier solution that I discovered after publishing is:

      Autopilot to this position, but do not let B just stand there at the end as in the picture.

      Instead, when B stumbles on this block, he will overshoot it a bit as the climbing is not smooth. So take advantage and click on the stairs ahead of him at the right time.

      B might fall or jump way too far, but mostly end up on the stairs. Then he can walk to the win. This is easier I think as it requires much less steps.

      And there is this very easy unintended shortcut.

      Immediately pull the large draggable completely to the right, don't release it, hold it for a bit untill R is affected. R wil kind of freeze, move very slowly, and turn around as soon as you release the block, to walk to the win. :eek:

      Ok, so I won the intended way (or one of the ways).
      Nice mini puzzle, it had me thinking and trying to pull the right solution, thanks!

      1. Squeeze B against the second wedge using the large draggable. He gets onto the large draggable.
      2. Move B in by one grid and squeeze again against the top wedge. B gets onto the higher metal block.
      3. Slide him onto the top wedge so he can step onto the smaller draggable.
      4. Then get onto the staircase just like the intended solution.

      @cpw Such a small level, and already 4 solutions. :rolleyes: Yours works smoothly. ;)

      Nice logic level, although after play it my fingerprint blamed you. :D Thanks!
      If you move quickly the long block and you touch Zap when it finished going down the stairs, for some reason he turns around and goes back up to the win.
    • Block builder
      @chemi Yes, that's the unintended shortcut of a few posts above. Good find!
