      Time level - 3:28
      ATTENTION! Combined slider with motor - are the slippery slider for B!! B does not freeze on the slider. Therefore, please consider this. You can move slowly - then B will not fall. Sorry for the inconvenience.

      P.S. Thanks @Chris Hester! I tested - indeed B can be struck by lightning if he stands on the intermediate stairs. Therefore, a warning: please do not stand on the intermediate stairs

      The first version of the level. It does not have a Z and a more convenient design for review. But it has labels.

      I got B to the 2nd set of steps exactly like in your video but he got zapped going down. :( Maybe I did it wrong or wasn't fast enough. :eek:

      Cool design! :thumbsup: A bit tricky to turn the mechanism at first but you soon get used to it. I was so pleased to reach the other side without needing help! :D

      Fun puzzle. The motor slider was hard to control but this level helps me to master it. I didn't need to watch the video as there's only one clean way for B to reach the win.

      I just had the same problem with another level I played earlier today:

      The combined draggable motor and slider is incredibly unstable to operate. I felt like just moving the draggable from one side to the other was enough for a neat bot free level. :rotf:

      But when B is on the rotation piece of the draggable, he does not stick to it's surface, so falling off is very easy. Mix that with the hard to control mechanism, and I'm not having the best time. Anyways, most people will probably enjoy this level. It's an awesome concept. Thanks for sharing.

      @Makl Yes, you are absolutely right - I also really dislike when a motor is attached to the slider, not taking into account the instability of the structure. But!!! I do a lot of research! Before making this level, I spent a lot of time researching stability. You can see the demo card:

      1) The easiest and most unstable way is 1 slider and 1 motor.
      3) Works better, but still unstable.
      2) The middle option is the most stable. It has minimal lateral deviations. That's what I use on the level.;)
      Trust me this is the most stable combination of blocks for a small structure.:rolleyes:

      Regarding B. Yes, of course, when B stands on a combined structure, he slides. Thank you, I forgot to put a warning in the first comment! I'll write a warning, thanks for saying;)

      Thanks for trying my level! If you leave a simple slider movement without B - it will be very small. This can be done very quickly. Apparently you have chosen an uncomfortable angle for management. Choosing the right angle is very important - everything will become much easier:rotf::rolleyes:;). Thank you very much for trying. It's OK. The most important thing is that you liked the idea! For me, this is the most important thing. Thanks

      @Chris Hester Thanks, thanks friend! I'm very glad that you liked it:D. Speed is not required at this level! On the contrary, it is better to do everything slowly. If you get hit by Z, you don't keep your distance:sneaky:. You need to go around Z with a distance of one block and then everything will be fine.;) Speed is not needed.
      Thank you, I'm very glad and happy that you liked it.:D I'm glad you learned how to use the slider. I'm glad that you were able to go a lot without video.:thumbsup: Well done. Thank you very much for playing!;)

      @ohmytian @aa kim Thank you very much my friends!!! I am very glad that you like the idea of the level.
      Yes, I spent a lot of time eliminating shortcuts. The first version of the level looked different. The passage through the keyhole was a little longer and a little more difficult. But with the help of autopilots, it was possible to shorten the first part of the level for B. There were 5 possible autopilots that shortened the path. I changed blocks a lot. But there was still room for reduction. That's why I had to put Z. I don't like Z at logical levels. I thought for a very long time (almost a day) how to do without Z. But in order to have one planned route, I had to put Z. I hope it did not cause you discomfort.
      Thank you very much!!:D:D;);):thumbsup:

      Very cool idea of gameplay!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:But if the robot falls, then you have to restart the level.:unsure:
    • Denis Nazin
      @Mekologic Thank you very much my friend! I'm very happy that you liked the idea:D. Sorry for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, the slider plus motor design is a slippery design for B. It is impossible to make a key for the lock in another way. Thanks;)

      I really love the key mechanism, even though it can be a bit awkward to operate. It's original and interesting, great looking design!! I want to give 5 stars, but those zappers are soooo annoying!!

      At first I spent ages looking for another way because I knew I would zapped if I went there. I looked at the video, so I did go down there and I got zapped!! So back to the beginning, having read the comments by @Chris Hester. Get past that section, down to the end and one careless tap and it zappers again!! They really do not improve the puzzle, they do not add interest to the gameplay, :(:cry::confused:, and without them it's 5 stars or even 6, ;):eek::rotf:!
    • Chris Hester
      @Denis Nazin you're too kind. :D But I cannot get past the zappers. I tried again and can reach the top step. But if I tap down I get zapped! Alas with the work needed to move the mechanism up to that point I don't want to restart again! Here's as far as I can get:

      @Denis Nazin I read your comment regarding shortcuts, but it's No Tricks!! It is a major factor in my not building anymore, that players do not seem to respect the notion of 'no tricks'. If a 'shortcut' involves tricks in a no trick level, it is cheating, not a shortcut!
    • Denis Nazin
      @Jom Thank you very much! I'm happy that you like the level idea:D!
      @Jom @Chris Hester
      Please excuse me:unsure:! I absolutely agree with you:thumbsup:. I uploaded the first version of the level in the first comment. It doesn't have a Z! But there are shortcuts.
