AR2 A 318 Inverter (ends 4 June @ 20h00 GMT)

Welcome to the 318th AR2 A contest: Inverter

A "gravity sorter" with a hopefully difficult problem of reversing the order of the five dillos. Or maybe not..... :twisted:

There are some portal rules:
- Any coloured dillo that does not use the portal that matches it's colour to exit, deduct $100. (In other words, if grey, red, green or purple use the blue portal, then score is -$100 for each one that uses blue)

- The yellow dillo will try to exit using any of the five portals, but if he uses any other than the blue one, then deduct $200 from your score.

To summarise:
Get yellow in the blue portal, and the other dillos in their matching portal, then your score = $ remaining.

Yellow in a non-blue portal - subtract $200.
Any other colour dillo in the blue portal - subtract $100.

Any questions, please ask for clarification.
PS: The order in which the dillos portal away does not matter. ie Timing does not matter.


Prices have not been changed, for a change. :lol:

Good luck, and have fun.

I was hoping this wasn't one of those "bit of cloth and piece of string" challenges. :lol:

But I suspect the full array of options, including accepting penalties and ordering issues, are going to be beyond the time scope of the challenge.

Good luck!

It's an interesting challenge. ^^ It would probably be helpful if I were any better at creating timers without using actual timers :lol:

My current solution only skips two penalties :lol:

I managed a different solution, but it ended up slightly more expensive than my earlier one...
So don't think I'll manage anything better for now :P
