    When the three pieces are next to each other (R bot through balls conduction, the moveable slider and the slider attached to the metal blocks) it makes the proximity sensor move. Don't ask me why :D

    Something like the proximity sensor in your level "High End", where the R bot has to be touching the two sliders, I guess.

    What's the status of this list? Is it still on the front burner? Thanks!

    You're the first to ask for the Advance Level Design document or even mention it in over a year since I posted reference to it here. I'll send you a private invite to the draft. It will likely never be published. :(

    "I think" I discovered a mechanism (I don't know if you will call it an exploit) in which a moving platform stops moving when a motor piece is placed on it "with some good timing". I used it in my level "Framed" and got some comments that its original so thought of sharing it.(https://mekoramaforum.com/media/framed.11495/).
    Here's the mechanism:
    [​IMG]
    And here's a short video (15 seconds) to show how it works.
    You can see that with some good timing I was able to jam the mechanism and the time was more than enough for B to reach the win block. It can be used as an ability step but I'm sure someone can find a better way of using it. Note that this is completely doable every time you do it, hence I can say it's a stable mechanism.
    Thanks!

    Can I ask one question? Where is the south, north, west and east for proximity sensor?
    I really want to use this dark magic, because I don't know how to get level's data and explore this mechanism on myself. Also how re-placing one of the details can affect on mechanism?

    Nothing new, but while abusing the eye on slider glitch found out many sliders can stack inside each other:

    Also nothing new, but I found when walking across naked sliders, if B stops, you can no longer move, but if you tap on the grass, B can fully cross

    Here are some of my levels that use slanting rotors/budgeables.

    I usually do trial and error whenever I make these types of levels.

    Squeeze B to make the mechanism slanted and something will happen to one of the robots when it attempts to walk onto the slanted budgeable.

    A "hanging bridge"-like level that must be "turned on" at the beginning.


    Rotate the rotor right away before it gets locked by the auto slider.




    SBS-like in terms of what blocks to press yet it uses a sloped rotor instead of a stair block.
