dydahyr: How quickly can you assemble the correct block? Rules:Time the run for each result of the random block generator and post the worst one. Fast copiers and adders are allowed. The problem is considered solved the tick after the last one in which the target matcher is not green.

That is the most ingenious method of solving an impossible puzzle that I have ever seen.

Here's a start: cadynek. I'm sure theres a bit more room for optimization. Worst case is for 0 crates. How are we meant to be measuring the run time? |

Just count the ticks as it's running. I clocked that one in 72 ticks.

Here's venupomIt's faster then jnz's but it's not perfect Here's very rougly the amount of ticks I counted (correct me bucky, if I'm wrong) Min: ~ 45 for 0 Max: ~ 62 for F |

My simple mypokoz is fast, but not as fast as venupom. How do you measure this? I used the pacing dozer, knocking down the barrels 1 to 4, to compare to the others (I added this measurement device while in the sandbox to time them both.) |

The best thing I found to measure the time is actually to use a conveyor which moves a crate. Then you define a place where you think it will land when solved. Here's hizergyn with 58 max. I think it's the best I can do using this trick. |

Counting frames isn't working out so well for me (computer is dropping frames to keep up). I need that frame counter that I asked for in the Support forum.  Anyway, I stole some tricks from Handi and came up with hykucap. Worst case for F. |

My fast solution: kikykonThat's 8 ticks for all different crates. Yes, only 8 ticks!  I admit I bent the rules a bit and solved it in a way that I guess was not intended, or was it? |

Daniel, that's awesome. When I thought about bending the rules the best I could come up with was hofozuh which is quite a bit slower than 8 ticks. |

Since nobody seems to be using the ticks for anything important, I've fixed it so that it doesn't always count an extra tick.
