Welcome to the 272nd AR2 A contest: Ferris Wheel

There they were, having fun at Walt Dillo World, when the Ferris wheel broke down.
Can you help the stranded dillos to safely exit the wheel?
(Please don't ask why the exit is at the wheel axle and not ground level - it's purely for contrived challenge difficulty purposes. :roll:

)

This might look simple and straightforward, but I'm hoping it proves to be a much more technical, engineering problem than usual. (Crosses fingers and toes....)

AR2 Version 2.1.3 Beta is used, make sure you use the correct version.

If you download this level please submit your solution even if you think it's not good. You help us keep the forum alive and we might be able to help you become a better player.

40 min in and all I can say is rock hard

Oh. Ummm. Sorry about that.

I thought perhaps it was time for a "challenging" challenge.
The POC did take me the best part of an hour.

It's perhaps a little early to capitulate, but if others feel it is too impossible, then please voice your opinions.....

Had some good ideas that failed miserably :cry:

I'm sure I can solve it but it won't be clean or efficient :lol:

Awesome. I never expected to hear Rob say such things. :twisted:

(while I seem to say them a lot these days....)

I was hoping there wasn't going to be a "one-bar wonder" quick trick for an easy solution.
So I guess that's mission accomplished, so far.

PS Congrats to Arunion for being first to a solution!

This looks like being the first ever challange I've made where there hasn't been a simple trick for a trivial solution.

Keep at it guys!

(PS - I gave it five days, but perhaps it needs seven? On the other hand, will that just prolong the misery? :twisted:

Thoughts?)
