I'm completely stumped on the new Convenience Stores.  imageI can't figure out how to even generate crates other than {0,C,D,E,F} or {0,D,E,F} respectively
Try lumyxag.

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

Very nice- I gave up trying to get more crates of the Convenience Store.  I hate it when I do that then peek and think- "Oh of course"

For lumyxag: fuhygub

Nifty puzzle; at first glance I thought it was totally impossible.
By the way, what do you want me to do with the left-over barrel ?    Grin

For Buckymart v3 (nasihaf): tezusub

Seeing Downward Dilemma again, I remembered that I was forced to settle for a 1/4 rate solution (kizinen) because a 1/2 rate solution eluded me.  Until now.

And welcome to krisper, without whom I wouldn't have been inspired to take up this old challenge again!

I haven't had time lately to keep up with the newer puzzles, but I happened by the forum this morning and was inspired by jnz's level to try for a 1/2 solution myself, which was quite fun.

Nicely done, jf!  Whereas I tried to construct a 1/2 rate stream by imagecombining two 1/4 rate streams you did it by imagedecimating a full rate stream which is quite nice.  I do wonder about the seemingly "extra" parts you used.  Are they for show?

Um, why yes, that's it. It wasn't that I was too hasty to save the level without first cleaning up some early experimentation.  Smiley  I had started with two devices and added a third, but now that you point it out, I see that I only need imageone of them: gyrusum

... And one more puzzle along the same theme as the last few.  This time, I operate a single machine that dispenses more than one product.

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