      So glad to see you back @yuan! I loved the cleverness in how you combined the tricks for this level. I just wasn't a fan of all the taping. A solid four stars from me, plus a really big one as thanks for thinking of us again and sharing!! Thank you!

      Slowest drag race ever. :rotf:

      I quite like the cleverness. For the springboard stairs I think there are better alternatives available. And it would have been great if this was a recoverable last step in a larger level.

      Got me - sometimes the SBS worked and others nothing? No win here?

      Thanks to @Firmansyah Amir - I was able to win but didn't rate for a few reasons. The combination of SBS and auto pilot was good and I knew what should happen just didn't get the auto pilot part. This was a good demo.

      Ja, ja, ja... very funny and tricky at same time. By the way, welcome back!!! We missed you and your tricky levels. :thumbsup:
      Thanks!

      While interesting and occasionally fun, this quirk has to be executed using white space, which I really try to avoid as much as I can.

      @gmacpro and @Don G Rowe - I'm not sure if you're aware of the first step.
      The first step is a modified Springboard Stair move. You can use either the "weak" variant or the "interrupted" variant (which are nearly identical in practice and identical in theory). In either case B doesn't spring as far past the stair block (and thus end up on top of the moveable which you don't want).

      For the weak variant, instead of starting on top of the top stair, start before it. Tap the top stair and then quickly tap the bottom of the movable. If you tap with the right rhythm, B will ignore the top stair and instead attempt to autopilot beyond it - ergo the SS trick.

      Normally, most of us have been doing SS by starting on the top stair, taping before it and then after it. This results in a greater spring effect.

      In order to interrupt the extent of the spring motion, you can perform it as usual, but tap beyond the top stair (i.e. the bottom of the movable) a second time just as B is turning around to go back up. If you think about it, this resets B's autopilot to be the same as it would be in the weak variant case.
      The next trick to perform is the Mid-Air-Tap trick. In order for B to perform the Hercules trick to move the movable, an autopilot for the top of the movable needs to be executed. For this autopilot, the mid-air-tap needs to be made at the moment that B is level with the top of the movable. Hopefully this makes complete sense.

      So as you can see @Don G Rowe, there is no need for any bot to descend down to the white space. Once the movable is pushed against the stone pillar, R will gleefully walk over the fence blocks to the win due to the R Beyond Boundary exploit.

      I confess I could not find the solution:confused::cry:. Although my guess was very close to the original solution:oops::(. thanks to @Firmansyah Amir:thumbsup::sneaky:
