Tiny Blue Box

Tiny Blue Box

      A tiny homage to @JackBauer Blue Box series. Similar to a black box, do not try to understand the internals too much. Just try, and some surprises will await you.

      Thanks to @chemi for reporting a shortcut early on.

      Had to re-upload once more as something became unstable and I forgot something.

      After the win is raised, one of the bots will need to be raised to the top aswell. "But there's a ceiling" you say?

      Nice logic loop. Ending reminds me of @vince 's Break Out II. :rolleyes:

      Very rewarding level. Difficult to decide what bots are required to keep so i wasted a bit of time at the second ball.

      FINALLY - I don't want to say some areas were unstable as it's possible I was playing the wrong level. For example, on your first release, the win didn't raise on the 1st two attempts but on the third it did. After playing the last version, I thought, the 1st two attempts, the win raised but I didn't deal with zapperR so needed to restart. The next three or four attempts, the win didn't raise. I re-downloaded the latest level and all worked on the 1st attempt. Overall great level with some surprises as you said. Thanks

      @gmacpro The 2nd upload had a very unstable mechanism due to some changes I forgot to test (I was in a hurry). The 1st and 3rd (this one) have a fairly stable mechanism. It isn't perfect due to the small space and the fact it has to push out the ball as a second step.

      Got a little confused at first, but the solution is really fun :shades:

      Now you have uploaded the video i see i have completed differently.
      I used zapperbot instead of B to move the second ball then threw him off the level. When the winblock moveable rises i had B placed on the lower part of it so he rose with it ready to interact with pillarbot when he squeezed round the corner all squashed up. Getting B back to winblock movable in time was tricky if i used him to release mechanism ball. Alternatively i could use pillarbot to nudge that ball. .

      An awesome compact level with a nice path. Apart from ZapperBot (that I threw away ASAP) I did everything as in your video. That's a great satisfaction! :thumbsup:
