This is a pretty easy competition, so it'll be over May 20th at 18:00 GMT

The rules are simple. TImers and ropes are free. The person who does it for the cheapest wins. To get your official total just remove all the ropes and timers and use that as the score you submit with.

Is tension on ropes free too?

I'll count each tensioned rope as -100$ to your total score

Although I had meant to disable tension :/ I'm not sure how it got back up.

In fact I'm going to re-upload the map w/o it just to avoid confusion. If you already d/led this map, just don't use tension

Edit: Fix'd. thanks

Cool...so basically do everything with rope :shock: ? fun fun.

4880+ not including ropes and timers.

This is going to get crazy.

Edit: 4900+

Just one question - do we have to properly complete the level within budget (including ropes and timers?) - or is it OK if the armadillo escapes but it says "Over Budget"?

"Over Budget" is fine, but remember, if there are so many ropes my laptop can't play the level, theres a chance i might pretend the email got lost ;)

Let's say I finish the level with over budget. So I delete all ropes and timers to see what my score would be, but it's still over budget. This would be disqualified since it truly is too much?

Was this directed at me by any chance? I just found out that my desktop comp starts to lag
when i copy and paste a certain portion of the level, effectively
doubling the amount of rope. :oops:

I can try and tone the rope usage down a bit if that is the case...

Edit: anyone willing to say 4960+?...

No, your solution made my comp lag a lil but it wasn't any problem. It's only when I can't even get the solution to finish that might be annoying
