Those physics detectors might make more impossible puzzles even more impossible.

I like all of your non-puzzles, especially the crate sorter, it's so simple! I can't beileive nobody else had thought of it. And also, yes, your puzzle is entirely impossible.

Okay, think of a number. Now, scratch that number and think of 0. You're thinking of zero, right? FrEaKy

gokurav    Bucky's, er, immibis's copying service   Possibly impossible, if that makes sense

Definitely impossible.  There is no way to obtain a non-1 crate outside the enclosure.

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

I've modified the level to make gokurav possible *sometimes*.  I thought my changes were in the spirit of the level, but I apologize if not.

My solution still won't solve the level for when the crate is a 9.  I'm pretty sure that can't be done with the basic idea of the level.

Actually that crate sorter was inspired by another that I saw in the warehouse, but it wasn't posted to the forums. It's almost exactly like that one, so if you can find out who made that one, they get credit for it, rather than me.

And geej66, yes, that's how it was intended to be. I evidently wasn't thinking when I made that level. You're right, it doesn't work with a nine because then you can't get anything but a 1 out of it.

It looks like something from this thread.

New puzzle: Randomization (hicimux). I know it's possible because there has previously been a level using the same techniques, and it has been solved.

Are you sure? The machine isn't placing a crate on the matcher and it isn't outputting any crates. It doesn't seem possible unless you mess with the machine itself...

I'm guessing this isn't how you intended it to be solved: bubolop

I had also created the obligatory cheat for an unlocked puzzle  Wink  -- lebubor for hicimux.
