Back Spin

Playable demo of self reversing motor(s) ...and of course B can get spun/flung - (which seems to be a theme for the levels I post here. :) )

      Yes, motors are strange things. I won but I can't say that this application was/is stable and/or reliable for a real level.

      @Meko Guy thanks for the comment.

      It's repeatable and I haven't found any stability issues yet (once built).
      - Can be orientated in any direction
      - Speed can be controlled by addition or proximity of other blocks.
      - Spin efects can be varied by build order and controlled by addition or proximity of other blocks during build.
      - effect can be triggered by B dependent on build order

      ...I also struggled to find a practical application for a playable level, however the ingenuity of members here consistently surprises.

      If you remove support of Stones that Spin would fall like spring.
      If you add bigger hands it might stuck between Stone support.

      The Slider/s could be helpful to control this random spin.

      What I like is, design and unexpected spin.
      And I see no game here as well.

      Thanks.

      Doesn't need stone support if balanced

      See this version without stone and showing activation when B moves into proximty zone.

      Note: Backspin mech is self anchored. 2nd tower induces the affect and is loose and can fall.

      @ArGee

      That's nice.

      I call that 2nd tower, a Movable.

      When Movable is standing, proximity works when B approaches Mechanism.

      And when Movable is fallen or displaced far away from Mechanism, proximity works when B goes away from the Mechanism!

      Have you noticed this?

      You can create many different results by changing build order, pieces and proximity of the Induction tower.

      No, I had not found the affect reversal that you discovered. :)

      It's hard, but very interesting.
