    That is the ultimate point I want to make......bot movement and getting zapped over this mechanism depends on the direction we choose

    Weird. Quite the limited condition set I must say:
    - The designer must design the level with B facing a particular direction;
    - The player must be able to anticipate that the designer wants him/her to rotate a pair of zappers towards each other;
    - All the while the player must also not move B first before tapping him beyond said pair of zappers.

    I suspect, furthermore, that the orientation of the game space has no bearing on the outcome and rather it is B's orientation in respect of the zappers. If you want to test this theory, just recreate the latest version with B facing the win block beyond the two draggables, and try then.

    To my surprise you are absolutely correct....it is the orientation of B that actually is responsible for all these.....If B is oriented East west it can cross over both single and multiple zapper combinations safely....however B can rarely cross even a single zapper combination when it is oriented north south.......if you have any more suggestions or doubts please post...thanks.....and yes the bug is very complex to fathom but so was the ether bug.....so wouldn't you agree that this is worth knowing.??......;)

    @Scare Crow Oh sorry, I didn't notice you asked me a question ( No alert ..strange-0-).
    Well, then I would say my experience in your first explanation card is: B didn't die when two zapper are facing
    each other. Only one tap on the win.
    Hope this helps. Thanks.

    Guys did anybody ever notice that the zapper gets turned on only in the presence of the B bot....in the presence of only R bots in a level it never gets turned on.....I observed a case when even only the B bot was present the zapper didnot get activated....I observed the case thrice but unfortunately I donot have any levels to study it....if any one of you observe this please take a screen shot and post it here.....i shall be ever grateful to you for this act of kindness

    Why is a screenshot needed? And yes, I know about it. It also works on normal Zappers unattached to R-bots. I think it's intentional

    Sorry, there must have been a misunderstanding. Like I said in my last post, I'm pretty sure it's intentional, and the pattern is that it happens when B isn't in a level.

    @Frenzies - I think he means that he wants to examine the exceptions to the rule...

    What do you mean? Are you talking about the multiple B-Bots?

    You just fill the entire floor with Zappers and I think you put a B-Bot anywhere, then press play. The game will crash. Then, go back to the level and you'll be able to place more B-Bots. They'll be invisible at first, so be sure to remember where you placed them. Then you can remove the Zappers and play, and the B-Bots will appear. I think that the first one you placed before crashing the game will be the controllable B-Bot. The rest will act like R-Bots.

    Thank @meko for explaining it to all of us. This glitch was discovered a long time ago, but they didn't explain how to do it clearly enough. We only figured it out after meko explained it in his level "Yellow Land".

    Are you sure that you filled the whole floor with Zappers and played it?
