    This is the development of "Red freezing"
    Combine it with "pushing" and "rotating"

    I share this in preparation for my next level later ...

    1. Tilting Bridge P - Put P on rotor and rotate. Let P remain in freeze condition

    2. Pushing Freeze. -
    Bring P to the right then drop and push P in the Freezing state

    Maybe the legends already know about this
    But this is still new to me

    If you have played levels with freezing development like this, please share here

    Have Fun

    @BangTe .. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. Please can you post a video to confirm?

    Thanks @BangTe :thumbsup:
    Very clever .. i got 1 completely wrong, but managed 2 (by accident i think :p)
    Nice moves, thanks for sharing!

    It's a good idea to have a separate thread per mechanism, like this. Well done :thumbsup:

    The freezing effect is very useful for achieving moves that are otherwise impossible. Here are a few more examples..

    In the first move of NoWay, it introduces a measure of caution that prevents an early death.

    In @Andrea gerbillo's Scara Macai, it opens up an alternative solution with a step that would be a great feature in any intended solution. See time 0:16 in the alternative solution.

    Also the main feature in narrow gap by @explorer
    And a tight squeeze, also by him.

    :rotf: .. sorry, i thought you did it on purpose!
    The trick is to hold on to the draggable after you've set the autopilot. The freezing effect then makes B move slowly and he can go into tight spaces more easily. In your video, you can see that you were holding onto the draggable because the circles on it are highlighted in white. If you were to execute that autopilot move without holding onto the draggable, then B would struggle to squeeze in, and may pop through and past your targeted position ... In the way that Ray described.
    • Check my level, No Way, (link is above) for its opening move.
    • Also see Scara Macai (link is in same comment) at time 0:16 in my alternative solution video.
    • Also the other levels that i linked to, above.
    ... They all work by holding onto the draggable to put a freeze on the autopilot.
